public 
  procedure SaveToFile(const FileName: string);  Virtual;  Overload;
  procedure SaveToFile(const FileName: string; IgnoreEncoding: Boolean)
                      ;  Overload;

Description

SaveToFile saves the contents of the stringlist to the file with name FileName. It writes the strings to the file, separated by end-of-line markers, so each line in the file will contain 1 string from the stringlist.

SaveToFile creates a file stream with name FileName, calls TStrings.SaveToStream and then destroys the file stream object.

Errors

An EStreamError exception can be raised if the file FileName cannot be opened, or if it cannot be written to.
