Save string at the end of file

[C.Tommy]

Hello,
I have a string , and I want save this string of the end of my file.
The problem is, that CVI save my string at the end of the last line, not i a new line.
Here you can see the correct saves:

03-02-1997 13:56:37 1 1 0 0.0000 3
03-02-1997 13:59:35 1 1 0 0.0000 3
03-02-1997 14:26:01 1 1 0 0.0000 2

But my Function looks like this:

03-02-1997 13:56:37 1 1 0 0.0000 3 03-02-1997 13:56:37 1 1 0 0.0000 3 03-02-1997 13:56:37 1 1 0 0.0000 3


You can see, that my program did not start in a new line!!!
Can s.B. help my please?
"/n" did not gone.

Thanks

It will work better with "\n" instead of "/n"

/n does work.
Can you post the section of code that writes to the file?
How are you viewing the file when you see the appended line instead of the new line?
Have you looked at the file using a hex viewer or the DOS Debug program to see what character separates one line from the next?

Please look to my code:
void PruefdatenSpeichern(void)
{
input2 = fopen (file, "a");

strcpy (w, p); //p = the string with my system time
strcpy (message5, "/n"); // /n as a string
strcat(w , message5); //add /n to the and of my string
fputs (w, input2); //write into my file

fclose (input2); //close file
}

This code did not write in a new line!
The write code was edit by me with the editor!!!

I looked at the file with the Microsoft Editor.
Can you help me, what I do wrong?

Tanks

Use "\n" instead of "/n" !!!!!!!
