Hi Terry,
I have it working on one computer (If f.exists) which I use for
programming and my private files and is not (never) connected to
the Internet.
I then typed it in on the other computer (which has none of my
project files or any of my private files) and is connected to the
Internet so that I can "speak/chat/correspond" on the Internet, it
was typed as "If f exists" the first time, but then I did not type
it again, I copied and pasted it so it was copied and pasted with
the same error.
I was just teasing you. :)
You wouldn't have been able to compile it without the correct syntax.
One thing that caught my attention throughout the thread was the
reference to tOS=Nil as opposed to tOS.Close as I learned before.
According to RS, the stream and the reference to it should
automatically disappear at the end of the method if it was declared
in the method and tOS.Close is not required. I could see the
reference not disappearing if tOS were a property however.
What I have discovered is that, if you wish to write to and then read
from the same folderitem in the same method, making the reference nil
will actually close the write for the next read.
Terry
