| Is there any way I can add information to the beginning of a file without having to rewrite the whole file? |

| OpenFile() returns a file handle that allows both reading and writing, and then you use seekfile to go to a specific location within the file. However I don't know if it is possible (don't think that it is) to 'insert' data into a file so that offset of the rest of the data in the file shifts as well. |

| Thank you for the Reply. I didn't think it was possible either but I figured I would check to save myself a lot of extra writing. |

| With 2 banks you can write your own function like FileInsert(file$,offset,bytes). Thats for 10 minutes to do and you have what you need. bye |
