Writing to Multiple txt file with different names [message #94590]

Hello everybody,

I need to write my data to a bunch of different files, ideally with 'consecutive' names, such as File 1, File 2, File 3, .. so on (up to thousands of text files)

Here's my attempt:

get_lun, unit
for i = 1,1000 do begin
openw, unit, ‘File_’+ i + ‘.dat’, /get_lun
printf, unit, 'my data will go in here'
endfor

IDL keeps saying filename argument must be a scalar string.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.
