Posts: 7                Now that CreateBinaryFile is deprecated...

If I change stream=f.CreateBinaryFile("pn.knw") to 
stream=BinaryStream.Create(f,True)
How do I set the binary file name to pn.knw?

I am wanting to create a preferences file with a specific name.
Thanks!
Deb


Old code below
****************

Dim f As FolderItem
  Dim stream as BinaryStream
  Dim Path as string
  
  f = SpecialFolder.Preferences.Child("kpref") 
  Path=f.absolutePath
  
  if f<>nil then
  stream=f.CreateBinaryFile("pn.knw")
  stream.WritePString str(Wtop)
  stream.WritePString str(WLeft)
  stream.WritePString Path
  stream.WritePString Name
  stream.WritePString Key
  Stream.Close
  else
  MsgBox "Error Writing Registration File"
  Quit
  end if
