If I understand all advices correctly I created small test Flash CS6 and
published as AIR app

// xml personnel file
var personnel:XML = <employees>
 <employee id='1187' lastName='Davis' firstName='Charles'>
  <office>CT</office>
  <dept>Marketing</dept>
 </employee>
 <employee id='3383' lastName='Jones' firstName='Kevin'>
  <office>NY</office>
  <dept>Sales</dept>
 </employee>
 <employee id='2946' lastName='Samuels' firstName='Elizabeth'>
  <office>CT</office>
  <dept>Engineering</dept>
 </employee>
</employees>

// new node appended
personnel.appendChild( <employee id='4002' lastName='Suzuki'
firstName='Kenji'>
         <office>MA</office>
         <dept>Sales</dept>
        </employee> );
var prefsFile:File = File.applicationStorageDirectory;
prefsFile = prefsFile.resolvePath("personnel.xml");
var outputStringXML:String = personnel.toXMLString();
stream = new FileStream();
stream.open(prefsFile, FileMode.WRITE);
stream.writeUTFBytes(outputStringXML);

line
var prefsFile:File = File.applicationStorageDirectory;
gives mistake
Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: File.

What is wrong here?
