Appending Text to Existing File, Text Appears on Same Line as Existing Text

However, it appears on the same line as the existing text in the file. This only occurs during the first write though. Any subsequent writes to the file are correct. CODE MyFile.WriteLine(Input & "~") If I insert the newline character as such: CODE MyFile.WriteLine(vbnewline & Input & "~") then the first time I write to the file the ouput is correct. However, subsequent writes produce double newlines. I assume this is because the writeline method inserts the breaks. Why am I not getting the initial break though? Thank you for any assistance.
