Output to file not working inside OnBarUpdate

[darmbk]

Hi Lance,

After a few more attempts I got there. For completeness of this post and maybe you can explain why...

[1] It only worked when I defined the file name with the other variables outside of the OnBarUpdate method?
[2] It worked for the Cbi.Core.UserDataDir.ToString() but not for Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolde r.Desktop) in the file path name?

Thanks,
darmbk.

PS The above might simply be because I had some clumsy coding error rather than these being facts about how a NinjaScript should operate.

Glad to hear you got it working.

I would need to look at this specific case to be able to provide you with an answer

[2] It worked for the Cbi.Core.UserDataDir.ToString() but not for Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolde r.Desktop) in the file path name?

Try this and it should work for you
private string path = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolde r.Desktop) + @"\yourtextName.txt";

let me know if I can be of further assistance.
