Default Clear text file after input - 09-13-2005 , 08:00 AM






Is it possible to empty (not erase) a text file after I have read it in?


Thanks in advance,

Stijn Verrept.

You can. For what reason though? So the "writing" app can write to a
blank file? In this case can you not set the "writing" app to
overwrite? Whay are you averse to DELETE?
