Take a look at the FileStream object. It's the oo way of playing with
files. There are only a few methods and properties. It is pretty
straightforward. Don't be alarmed by the word stream, cause that is
just what it is: a stream of bytes like anything else in your PC.

Good luck.

The functions you are looking for would be OpenFile, CloseFile, Write,
Read, etc. You will find them documented in the help files. Your question
is a little too vague to answer completely. I would help to know if you
are intending to store bytes, integers, records or such.
