I'm trying to modify (i.e. read and write to) a text file. As far as I know, you can only open a file as only In_File or Out_File, and Out_File always creates a blank file. I tried to open two copies of a file, one as an In_File and one as an Out_File, simultaneously, but it came up with a Use_Error when I tried to open the second. Is there (an easy) way of doing this? Thanks in advance, Barney
