    Thanks, Quzah. And don't worry; I'm a good programmer. I'm still learning how the computer works though...

    Thantos:
    I tried to type the code as close as I could to the original. If I didn't get it perfect, I've already apologized for it. I would've been better off not even mentioning it considering the complete lack of etiquette in the response.

    And if it's such a waste of your time might I respectfully ask why you post in this thread? This is not a waste of time to me. If you consider that fighting, then just forget I asked.

    Ok, I figured it out! Any changes you make to a file do not take place until the file is closed!

    Heck, just being able to share data between text and binary files is cool to me! QBasic would NEVER let you do that! :-)

    So I guess theoretically you could tax the memory by doing too many file changes before closing it. Hmm... I guess I'll try that next.

    This is really giving me some good ideas on what controls I need to add to prevent my program from screwing up! :-)
