It depends what type your Array is but the main framework should something like that:

if filetype("yourfile.dat") = 0 then 
 new_file = createfile("yourfile.dat")
end if

'To open the file for writing :
write_file = Writefile("yourfile.dat")
For x = 1 to 30
Writeint(write_file,YourArray[x])
next
Closestream(write_file)

'To open the file for Reading :
Read_file = Readfile("yourfile.dat")

while not EOF(Read_file)
YourArray[X] = Readint(Read_file)
x = x + 1
wend

Closestream(Read_file)

' You can also use Openfile with your File to open it for read and write the same time

Yes you can use incbin with Textfiles but you can only read them. Writing of Incbin files is not allowed.
Don't forget to change the path of your file to 'incbin::yourfile.dat' when using incbin.
