Hi Michelle,
set UserFile to choose file with prompt "Please choose the
dictionary file to add the words to."
set fileRef to open for access UserFile with write permission
--> "File file Dora:Users:michelle:Desktop:en is already open."
set eof of fileRef to (get eof of fileRef) + 1
write additions to fileRef
close access bar
Why are you opening into fileRef, but closing bar? They should be the
same variable.
If I put a close access statement right before the open access
statement, I get an error saying that the file isn't open.
How exactly are you using the close access command?
This should work:
set UserFile to choose file with prompt "Please choose the dictionary
file to add the words to."
try
close access UserFile
end try
set fileRef to open for access UserFile with write permission
write additions to fileRef
close access fileRef
But this won't work:
set UserFile to choose file with prompt "Please choose the dictionary
file to add the words to."
set fileRef to open for access UserFile with write permission
close access fileRef
write additions to fileRef
close access bar
And this:
set fileRef to open for access UserFile with write permission
I don't think is necessary. I thing "write" automatically starts at
the next byte, not overwriting the last one.
Tom
