FileClose generates error code: -1

[Fossil Rock]

Is this normal?

Error code: -1 for line # (343) :       FileClose($Var1)

That doesn't sound like a return value for FileClose() but maybe the error for the wrong File Handle for FileOpen().

$Var1 = FileOpen()

FileClose($Var1) << contains the File Handle for FileOpen... That's the only thing I can think of that would throw a -1 error.

FileClose() can't be used with filenames -- you must pass it a handle generated by FileOpen().

Here's an example use of FileOpen() and FileClose():

Local $Handle = FileOpen('C:\File.txt')
If $Handle <> -1 Then
   ; Perform file operations
    Local $Data = FileReadLine($Handle)
   ; ···
    FileClose($Handle)
EndIf

Hmmm, that's what I had tried to say, but much more elequently put!
