Thanks for the fast response Robin!
I don't think I explained what I was needed all that well, so the response you gave wasn't able to help, but is appriciated all the same!
right now the file is called USERS.REF.BAK and it has a format similar to this
mark.wallace15 Mark Wallace
jimi.johns Jimmy Franks
sand.which Sand Which
Names have been changed to protect my classmates identities!
I just want to be able to add to the bottom of the list a new username and matching name to accompany it
Thank you again for the first response as well as anything else you might be able to help with!
Robert
