Hi George,

Perhaps try assigning ProcessThese.FullPath to a variable first; e.g:
sFullPath = ProcessThese.FullPath
Print #1, sFullPath

You will need to declare the variable first (at the beginning of the program):
Dim sFullPath As String

Also please note the following:
* The "Run Command CmdString" line is unrelated to what you're trying to do here (but don't delete it - it is still a required part of your code)
* I understand from your previous post that this code is in a loop.  Whilst what you have done should work, it would be better to execute the 'Open file "D:\4_RefreshMB.txt" for output as #1' statement just before the start of the loop, then close the file at the end of the loop.

Hi. What is the value of ProcessThese.FullPath? Any chance that ProcessThese is not assigned? If you print to the Message Window, instead of a file, do you see what you would expect to see? Does the output file get created?

I added this error capture but it still crashes.

ProcessThese.FullPath is simply an in memmory file that it takes the value in the column FullPath from to create a list. The full code is part of this question as I inherited this code base without any notes and we found that it's crashing in some steps. So I wanted to write the messages that currently write just to the message window to a text file so that I can easily see where the error is happening -usually causing MI to crash with no error report about 45 mins after it starts to execute.

...but the (simple) addition of code to log to a txt file is now causing mapinfo to crash before it starts executing...

I'm probably on the wrong track, but am just wondering about the following questions:

Can you see if anything prints to the message window before MapInfo crashes?  I would expect at least one FullPath string to be printed before the crash, if it is the log file causing the error.
Have you tried a different path for the log file?
Can you give an example of the strings within the FullPath field?  Are there any invalid characters in any of the records?

Here is the log procedure I normally when having to use logging in my MapBasic application:

Sub DEBUGWriteToFile(ByVal sMessage As String)
Dim nErr As Integer
OnError GoTo ErrorOccured

'I'm using a variable file set elsewhere but you can hardcode it as shown below
'Open File msDebugFile
Open File PathToDirectiory$(TempFileName$()) & "logfile.txt"
   For Append As #975
   CharSet SystemInfo(SYS_INFO_CHARSET)
Print #975, Time(24) & " " & sMessage
Close File #975

Exit Sub
'-------------------------
ErrorOccured:
   nErr = Err()
   If nErr = 825 Then
      Resume 0
   Else
      Print "Error: " & nErr & ": " & Error$() & " DEBUGWriteToFile: " & sMessage 
   End If
End Sub

I wonder if it can be connected to the location of your log file. Have you tried specifying a path to your TEMP folder as I have done above?
