Open For Access Broken in 9?


  • Subject: Open For Access Broken in 9?

I'm trying to open a file for access with write permission.

In 10, it's happy.

In 9, it complains that the file does not exist. I've checked it and it's
complaining about the line
set writeFile to open for access alias thePath with write permission

In the documentation it says that if the file does not exist, it will
create one for me. Is this not the case under 9? I've looked all over and I
can't find any reference to support that. But maybe everything's just
reporting the latest documentation, which is for X.

So if it is broken (or designed that way), how do I create the file?
