Object doesn't support this property or method: 'objFile.WriteLine'

Hi,

I have a script that is supposed to get a remote file and write it locally but I get "Object doesn't support this property or method: 'objFile.WriteLine'" when I try to write. I have this working on other scripts, but can't seem to figure why it is not working on this script. Here is code:

Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

If objFSO.FileExists(getFile) Then
Set objFile = objFSO.GetFile(getFile)
Else
Set objFile = objFSO.CreateTextFile(getFile)
End If

If objFile.Size > 0 Then
' Code to verify file
Else

strWriteFile = strCompleteFile 'Code from remote file

Do While InStr(strWriteFile,Chr(10))

theNewLine = InStr(strWriteFile,Chr(10))
theLine = Left(strWriteFile,theNewLine-1)
strWriteFile = Right(strWriteFile,Len(strWriteFile)-theNewLine)

objFile.WriteLine theLine 'THIS IS WHERE IT FAILS

Loop

objFile.WriteLine strWriteFile

End If

Set objFSO = Nothing
Set objFile = Nothing

Before objFile.WriteLine theLine 'THIS IS WHERE IT FAILS add

response.write "theLine: "&theLine
response.wend
 objFile.WriteLine theLine 'THIS IS WHERE IT FAILS

Open in new window

Is there data?

try objFile.WriteLine(theLine)

Yes, I could have mentioned I tested that already. Here is the response line:

theLine: %CTF: 1.00

I should note that I now get the error:

Object doesn't support this property or method: 'wend'

I also did try objFile.WriteLine(theLine) as well to get the same results.

Thanks!

That seems like a positive response but are you aware you have selected your own comment as a solution?

EDIT: well, not anymore ;-) thanks!

I thought something weird was going on ;-). I think I changed it now.
