Connecting 2 variables to write to a text file

[MBestSNZMY]

All,

I know this has to be easy....for most.  I haven't figured out the combination yet.

I simply want to connect 2 var's and post them in a text file.  I can do the file part easy.  Connecting these 2 have not been for me.  In vba I can do it but these lines will be in an .scr file.

(setq GetDwgName (getvar "dwgname"))

(setq xLim (getvar "limmax")

(setq FileName (open "D:\\Test Folder\\new_4-20.txt" "w"))

(Setq FText (GetDwgName + " " + xLim))

(write-line (FText) FileName)

(close FileName)

In the text file I want it to read

12345.dwg <space> 11.00 8.00

Thanks,

Mike

Try this

(Setq FText (strcat GetDwgName " " (rtos (car xLim) 2 2) “ “ (rtos (cdr xLim) 2 2)))

The error:

; error: bad argument type: numberp: (8.5)

(Setq FText (strcat GetDwgName " " (rtos (car xLim) 2 2) " " (rtos (cadr xLim) 2 2)))

That line is missing its closing right parenthesis.

My attempt

(setq xLim (getvar "limmax"))
(Setq FText (strcat (Getvar 'DwgName) " " (rtos  (car xlim) 2 2) " " (rtos  (cadr xlim) 2 2) ))

or

(Setq FText (strcat (Getvar 'DwgName) " " 
(rtos  (car (getvar 'limmax)) 2 2) " " 
(rtos  (cadr (getvar 'limmax)) 2 2) ))

or

(setq FileName (open "D:\\Test Folder\\new_4-20.txt" "w"))
(write-line (strcat (Getvar 'DwgName) " " 
(rtos  (car (getvar 'limmax)) 2 2) " " 
(rtos  (cadr (getvar 'limmax)) 2 2) )
filename)
(close filename)
