Noobe? Taking strings off and puting them back on

[Oldie but noobe]

Just wondering if swapping out strings and then putiing them back on later has any negative affect on life or tone.
How do you store them.

Thanks

I'm confused a little here. You want to take off the strings, store them, and then put them back on again? Is that what you are saying?

Yep

I've done this before, but only the ones in good condition as spares... the tone when you put on an old string, will be exactly the same as it was when you took it off..... incidently, although I use ernieball strings, I have to say, les paul sig strings are indestructable....

Thanks for the help! I will just leave them on.
