My high school IT teacher! This was the most fun class at school. Mr. Long cultivated a passion for coding in his class. I'm a software engineer at Amazon today because of this class. I recall one of the earliest beginner coding problems he gave us that I solved on the whiteboard, was how to swap the values of two variables without introducting a third variable. Aaah those were the days.

[@MrLongITandCAT]

Thank you for the kind word Keeran :) Glad to see you still enjoying coding. I love that swap example. Gets the brain brewing up some solutions.

[@lindaboshoff3260]

HELP PLEASE!! When running on version Delphi 10.4 we get an error when clicking the button that says the _p file is not found. Is this because of the version? Because in class, Wonga, who has 2010 Delphi version is the only person whose program ran without errors. Is one supposed to do anything differently in a different version of Delphi??
(By the way - Luuuuuuuuv MrLong! Tx for your awesome videos)

How do u make the cursor move to the next line ?

[@gachamukadi]

Mr Long. I'm running into the problem of my text file not showing up, despite me doing all the code properly. I save the text file as 'Indie', then type it as 'Indie.txt', yet the code doesn't recognise it. Do you have a solution for this, sir

[@azeiliakazi]

Good day Mr Long. I really require your assistance on this for my IT PAT. With regarding textfiles. No matter which way i try to upload a textfile to Delphi, it refuses to work and that too , i have watched many videos trying to solve it. This also applies to image code. It seems that there is an immenint issue with importing a file. Please may i get some advice or tips to sort this issue out urgently? Thank you🙏🏻

[@khaledbakhouche]

thank you

[@pezhman66]

excellent!

[@eshannaidoo3346]

Delphi cannot find my texfile even though it is in the same folder. i even used something like this ('D:\Delphi Practice\Teams.txt') and still says file not found. Pls help

[@eshannaidoo3346]

nevermind i figured it out. For those who are using delphi 10.3 , when locating your textfile , use ('..\..\Teams.txt'); OR put your text file in Win32\debug

[@reneilwempholoane8416]

​@@eshannaidoo3346I put the textfile in the win32 folder however it still says 'file not found'

How to create text file in delphi..pls tell me

[@MrLongITandCAT]

Here is a video on how to create text files: ruclips.net/video/FecvQ_q8aqA/видео.html

[@kevinlee1321]

Should we always add '.txt' when we name or assign the textfile?

[@MrLongITandCAT]

Yes.

[@jonellbotha9519]

My rich edit continuously says file not found even if my text file is in the debug file of my program

[@MrLongITandCAT]

Are you sure you are adding the ".txt" part to the end of the filename in the assignfile part.

[@jonellbotha9519]

I figured out my mistake, i added an extra.txt in the name and forgot that the file extension declares itself

[@voldibayizitunda2178]

@@MrLongITandCAT Sorry but can you help me out. I did everything but it doesn't want to work. It constantly says file does not exist. I even tried to find the same solution some have used and still it does not work
