opening and closing a file

Hi,
I have written a program that creates a file and then I want to open it and
save it.
but after I create it I need to release the file so I can open it.
After I have created it how do I release the control of it.

Cheers Russ

When using a 'FileStream' or 'StreamWriter' call its 'Close' method when you
are finished writing the file. If you are using 'FileOpen' to open the
file, call 'FileClose' with the same file number.
