Append mode in write operation

[Curious]

I want to write to an output file, "C:\\temp\\debu g.txt": If the file
exists, append the new content to the end of the file (instead of
overwriting the current content).

Therefore, I want to code this like below:
FileInfo lFile = new FileInfo("C:\\t emp\\debug.txt" );
if (lFile.Exists)
{

FileStream lStream =
lFile.Open(File Mode.OpenOrCrea te, FileAccess.Writ e, FileShare.Read) ;
}

However, it doesn't work because It overwrites the existing content. I
believe the append mode is defined with different parameters from the
ones I use. What are the correct parameters to define the "append"
type of write mode?

Thanks!

Use FileMode.Append . You don't have to check if the file exists, if it
doesn't exist it will be created.
