FileWrite Method 91

Applies To: Bitmap, Cursor, Icon, Metafile, RichEdit

Description

This method causes the object to be written to the file named in its File property. For the Bitmap and Icon objects this method will write a file of type .BMP and .ICO to a file with the appropriate extension. If File specifies any other extension, the method will fail with a DOMAIN ERROR:

 DOMAIN ERROR: This object cannot be saved to this type of file.

The FileWrite method is niladic.

If you attach a callback function to this event and have it return a value of 0, the object will not be written to file. You could use this to avoid overwriting an existing file.
