Richmond,
Thanks for your reply.
Yes, I perfectly understand what happens, but my point is :
why is it so ? What is the logic behind ?
Is it specific to LC of is it closely related to the different OSes
on which LC runs ?
Why the fact of closing then reopening a file leads to overwriting
its content ?
Best,

No; it isn't very logical. Ask Kevin Miller or Dr Scott Ranier.
Why is it so? Dunno, and don't really care; after all
once one has worked out that is the the things are one works with those
things.
I think you will find this is a cross-platform "problem".
Here's what is written in the dictionary:
"write "one 222" to file tFile -- Writes to the start of the file
write "two" to file tFile at 4 -- Writes to the file from character 4
write " three" to file tFile at EOF -- Writes to the end of the file
write " four" to file tFile at end -- Writes to the end of the file"
which seems quite straightforward.
Richmond.
