Hello

I want to append to a file using Filestream, but is there a way to have
filestream check for the file, and if is's not there, create the file
without having to check for to see if the File exists before hand?

Thanks
J

Something like

using (System.IO.FileStream fs = new FileStream("foo",
FileMode.OpenOrCreate, FileAccess.ReadWrite, FileShare.None))
{
fs.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.End);
...
}

FileMode.Append does that - it creates the file if it doesn't exist.

I.e. 'new FileStream("foo.blah", FileMode.Append, FileAccess.Write)'
