Hi there,

I have a bit of a problem. Basically I am using Ada.Direct_IO to read /
write to a file. The problem being I wish to write records of differing
types to the file, without closing the file and re-opening it.

Ada 95 will not even let me open the same file as two different file_type
variables as this creates a Use Exception error.

Can anybody help?

Thanks

Blake
