    Default Saving login information into a text file in my GUI App

    Hello there

    i have question i wonder if it possible.
    I have a simple GUI where i have a log-in system, but i want to know if it possible to keep the log-in information in a txt file. and when you log-in you have a other or the same txt-file where you can write and read in.

    Sure, that's possible. It's not very secure, but it is indeed possible.

    it don't need to be secure at all ^^ that is not my focus point at the moment now i just want a login system and be able to open you personal file ^^

    --- Update ---

    But i have onemore quiestion i would like to ask
    Is it possible to have to a date in a line follow by some text and in the end some numbers, and then in the end of the txt file you make a total of those numbers.
    Like this

    11/11/11 something 100
    12/11/11 something 100
    15/11/11 something 100


    total 300

    and then be able to write more lines in it so it calculates the total sum again and write it

    Whichever part you want to ask about. Oftentimes it's much easier to just try something instead of asking "is it possible to do...". Try it out, throw together an SSCCE if you're confused, and we'll go from there.
