Hi Al, Thanks for all help but unfortunately the problem still persists.With the below code the data is not null but when I write to a file I don't get anything. I have used the following for writing [data writeToFile:@"/tmp/station.pls" atomically:YES]; but the file size remains zero. Also I tried printing [NSApp presentError:error]; even when the data is not null and I get "-[NSAlert alertWithError:] called with nil NSError. A generic error message will be displayed, but the user deserves better.". Is it something silly I am doing? Thanks in advance
