Strange (to me): when using the write & read to file the position for reading starts at 1.When using the 'open for update' I have to set it to 0 otherwise data cannot be written properly. Is this normal?
Andre Rombauts on mouseUp put 1 into rec open file "test.txt" for binary write repeat 3 times write "Line " & rec to file "test.txt" put rec + 1 into rec end repeat close file "test.txt" put 1 into rpos open file "test.txt" for binary read repeat 3 times put (rpos * 6) - 5 into readpos read from file "test.txt" at readpos for 6 chars put "[" & it & "]" after display put rpos + 1 into rpos end repeat close file "test.txt" put display into field "Log" put 1 into wpos open file "test.txt" for binary update repeat 3 times put (wpos * 6) - 6 into writepos write "Sign " & wpos to file "test.txt" at writepos put wpos + 1 into wpos end repeat close file "test.txt" put 1 into rpos open file "test.txt" for binary read repeat 3 times put (rpos * 6) - 5 into readpos read from file "test.txt" at readpos for 6 chars put "[" & it & "]" after display put rpos + 1 into rpos end repeat close file "test.txt" put display into field "Log" end mouseUp _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
