Knowing the general structure of supplierdata would be helpful.
I'm guessing that you are getting an error because you have the following
structure.
supplierdata = {"Line1", "Line2", "Line3"}
Assuming that you want the output file to look like this.

Line1
Line2
Line3

There are 2 methods to do it.  I prefer one over the other.
You could build a format sequence to use with printf(). --Bad idea.
or you could just cycle through the sequence using a loop.
In either case you will have to use a loop.

integer newline
newline = '\n'
for A = 1 to length(supplierdata) do
  puts(supplierfname, supplierdata[A] & newline)
end for
