Am getting I/o Failure / Invalid Descriptor when creating
INI File using fwrite function with foxpro under window 98

It works fine with windows 95

What version FoxPro? (e.g. FP 2.0, FPD 2.5b, FPW 2.6a)
Are you trying to write to a local disk (Floopy, IDE, SCSI, ZIP), or a network drive?

What's the code look like? (Are you writing to an existing file or a "new" one?)

I just ran the following on Win98 SE 4.10.2222 A, P II 120 Mhz, 64MB, under FPW 2.6a (w/ official MS High Speed CPU patch). Output written to a local SCSI drive.

fil_nam = "dummyr.dum"
f_hdl = fcreate(fil_nam)
IF f_hdl >= 0
lcjunk = replicate("1234567890",10)
for ii = 1 to 2500
=fwrite(f_hdl, lcjunk)
endfor
=fwrite(f_hdl, chr(26))
=fclose(f_hdl)
ELSE
WAIT WINDOW "Couldn't get handle"
ENDIF

Is the Windows Directory shared and do you have rights to create files there???? David W. Grewe
