Writedoc

Postby bsyryn » Fri Oct 07, 2005 10:42 am

I have the following problem. I have a interactive vpe-document. In my program the user can open the document (readdoc), change or fill-in some fields and then save it again (writedoc). The problem is that all the time the vpe-doc gets bigger and bigger because it always appends new pages with the changes made by the user. I only want that a user opens a document, change it, and then save it, again and again. Is there a solution for this ?

Yes, delete the file before calling WriteDoc().

The functionality of WriteDoc() is, to append the current document to the existing file. Therefore the file must be deleted first, if you don't want this behaviour.
