Try this: http://tdn.garagegames.com/wiki/TGB/ScriptTutorials/ScoreTutorial

He details how to use fileIO to receive the player's name with a text dialog box, and save it to a text file (along with their score), and retrieve it later to display it in a high score table.

This technique could probably be reformatted to serve many purposes.
