The Open method opens a FileStream on the specified file in the specified file mode.
FileStream fs = fi.Open(FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Write);
Here is the complete code sample.
string fileName = @"C:fileNametxt"; FileInfo fi = new FileInfo(fileName); // If file does not exist, create file if (!fi.Exists) { //Create the file. using (FileStream fs = fi.Create()) { Byte[] info = new UTF8Encoding(true).GetBytes("File Start"); fs.Write(info, 0, info.Length); } } try { using (FileStream fs = fi.Open(FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Write)) { Byte[] info = new UTF8Encoding(true).GetBytes("Add more text"); fs.Write(info, 0, info.Length); } } catch (Exception Ex) { Console.WriteLine(Ex.ToString()); }
NOTE:
A File must be opened using an IO resource before it can be read or write to. A file can be opened to read and/or write purpose. The FileInfo class provides four methods to open a file.
+ Open
+ OpenRead
+ OpenText
+ OpenWrite
