Question : how to write to end of a file using scripting.textstream

hi, i have a "stupid" question.  i just cannot figure out how to use write or writeline to add something to the bottom of an existing file instead of overwriting it.  could you pls help?

maybe i need to do txtfile.write(array.getstring(...))?  where array is on new information, and txtfile is the textstream.

thank u!!

Answer : how to write to end of a file using scripting.textstream

you really need this method

object.OpenTextFile (filename [, iomode[, create[, format]]])

http://www.devguru.com/technologies/vbscript/quickref/filesystemobject_opentextfile.html

from the link above:

 The following example will open the file, "c:\somefile.txt" (or create it if it does not exist), and append the specified text to it.

 
Code:
<%
dim filesys, filetxt
Const ForReading = 1, ForWriting = 2, ForAppending = 8
Set filesys = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set filetxt = filesys.OpenTextFile("c:\somefile.txt", ForAppending, True)
filetxt.WriteLine("Your text goes here.")
filetxt.Close
%>
