 Reading and Writing to/from files in the same operation [RESOLVED]
Using the Open statement I can open text files for reading from, or writing to but not at the same time. Does anyone know how?
I want to scan the lines of an existing text file and when I find certain things, I want to insert new lines in the appropriate places.

You can open it for Binary, and use Put and Get.

"Put" and "Get"?
VB doesn't recognise them and I can't find any reference to them in my MSDN library.
We are talking VB here, aren't we?

This is my VB6 code using PUT
VB Code:
DatNr = FreeFile
DateiName = ReplayDateiPfad + "\Repl" + ReplayDatei + ".rp2"
Open DateiName For Binary As DatNr
Put DatNr, 1, Playtime
l = Seek(DatNr)
Put DatNr, i + 1, ChangeTime

They are statements.
VB Code:
Dim s As String
s = Space$(5)
Open "c:\test.txt" For Input As #1
Get #1,,s 'Should get 5 bytes of text
Put #1,,"Test" 'Should write "Test" where the marker is positioned
Close #1
Its been a while since I've used them, I think that is right.

Yeah thanks. 
I see what you mean now.
It's just a nightmare finding what you want in the MSDN library sometimes...

It works perfectly fine...as long as you know exactly what you want and where to find it.
