{
 -> Question:
 How can I store some TRichEdit components and TEdit Components in a single file?

 -> Answer:
 Use a filestream and a reader or writer object.
 These ease the tasks of writing strings to a binary stream and reading them back.
}

{
 -> Frage:
 Wie kann ich den Inhalt einiger TRichEdit und TEdit Komponenten in einer einzigen
 Datei  speichern?

 -> Antwort:
 Verwende einen FileStraem und ein Reader/Writer Objekt.
 Damit kann man leicht strings in einen binären Stream speichern und zurücklesen.

reader := Treader.Create(fs, 4096);
    try
      for

Controls[i].Text := reader.ReadString;
    finally
      
reader.Free;
    end;
  finally
    
fs.Free;
  end;
end;

// Example to store 2 TRichEdits and 3 Edit Controls to one file
// Beispiel, um  3 TRichEdits und 3 TEdit Controls in einer Datei zu speichern

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
  
SaveEditControls('C:\temp\temp.dat',
    [richedit1, richedit2, edit1, edit2, edit3]);
end;
