Don't you need to escape '\'?
i.e.  fh = fopen( "C:\\alerts.csv", "a");

Yes, I understand that. What I'm not sure of is exactly where to
place the code in my AFL or how to trigger it. I currently have
something similar to the following, but it's not giving me the
desired results:

// Begin Code Snippet
AlertIf( Buy, "", "Alert: "+Name(), 1 );
if (Buy=True)
{
      fh = fopen( "C:\alerts.csv", "a");
      if( fh )
      {
            fputs( Name()+","+DateTime()
+","+Close+","+High+"\n", fh );
            fclose(fh);
      }
      else
      {
            printf("Error opening file");
      }
}
// End Code Snippet

The alerts are showing up in Amibroker's alert window just fine. But
the alerts.csv file is never being appended.
