Hmm, the LR does, but (as is often the case) it's a very poor example, that 
even confuses me!

Here's how you'd save a file reference, assuming there is no place that the 
file would sensibly be stored relative to:

  Dim saveInfo as String = theFile.GetSaveInfo( nil )
  outp.WriteInt32 saveInfo.LenB
  outp.Write saveInfo

Then, you'd load it up this way:

  Dim saveInfo as String = inp.Read( inp.ReadInt32 )
  theFile = GetFolderItem( saveInfo )

Is easy, no?

No, you don't want to use PString because that only works for up to 255 bytes; 
a file's save info may well be more than that.

Best,
