Hi,
Was wondering if anyone could explain difference between:
Open [pathname] For Output As #filenumber
and
Open [pathname] For Input As #filenumber
Equivalently, what is the difference between opening a file in
"Sequential input" mode and "Sequential output" mode? These terms are
used in the VB Help but not defined further.
At first I thought Open [path] For Output means you can only output the
file, not write into it. But then I saw there is another optional
component to the syntax of Open statement which allows definition of
access as Read, Write etc. so I don't see what Output and Input are
defining.
Hope you can shed some light on this.
Thanks.
