Have you tried changing the first statement above to:

Thank you Harrie, that solves it. There are many functions which are
difficult to find when their existence is not known.
Sorry, actually it only half solves it:
Yes, it files the correct number of bytes, but
c=b.ReadShort
s=b.read c
results in the string s containing an unwanted character. I can't see
the solution to this.
Why are you using ReadShort? For storing a string, you'll be better
off using WritePString, as long as the byte-length of the string is at
most 255 bytes.
