in dir 8 on win98 

i'm trying to write some info using fileIO. my routine looks like this:

on writeFileIO whichFile, whichData
   myFile=new(xtra "fileIO")
   delete(myFile)
   createFile(myFile, whichFile)
   openFile(myFile, whichFile, 0)
   writeString(myFile,whichData)
   closeFile(myFile)
end writeFileIO

but i can only get it to overwrite in this manner. i was under the
impression that deleting it first would clear the contents of the old file.
