Assigns a Visual FoxPro channel to an existing file.

FCHAN _FOpen(char FAR *filename, int mode)
char FAR *filename; /* Name of existing file */
int mode; /* Mode option. */ |
Remarks
Example
The following example creates a test file. It then opens the file in FO_READONLY mode and attempts to write to it. As a result _FError( ) returns 5 for "Access denied." Next, the example opens the test file in FO_WRITEONLY mode, and attempts to read from it. Again, _FError( ) returns 5.
