Saving list file via repl

[Barneybear]

Hi, I can load a list from a text file then with repl modify e.g names(0)=0 the list. When I try to save the modified list to the same text file i encounter an error stating names does not exist. After which if I try to print names it has disappeared from ram.. Is this a stream issue, Is their a work around please
Thank you

Can you post the commands you use?

Thanks for the reply, using Json seems to overcome the problem, and the list does not disappear during write. All the best
