Why didn't I get an error message when I tried to read from a file
that hadn't been opened yet? Shouldn't LiveCode have gotten fussy
about that?
The read / write file commands both set 'the result' if there is an
error with the operation requested - in this case it would be set to
something like 'file not open'.
Warmest Regards,
Mark.
