When I close a text file using CloseFile(), a binary character is printed to the file. Why is that, and how can I get rid of it?
Thanks.

Which version are you using? This is a known bug that is fixed since version 5.52

Perhaps I am out of luck. I am using Installshield for Microsoft Visual C++ 6 (Build-130)

I believe that's a limited 5.0 version.
Maybe you can use a ListWriteToFile in combination with other List functions to work around the problem. Take a look at the sample "Replacement for FileInsertLine()" here on InstallSite under IS5/6 Sampples -> Components and Files. It's probably quite similar to what you need.

Thank you very much. It is a limited 5.0 release, yet it ships with the current Microsoft Visual C++ compiler. I used ListWriteToFile() and it works perfectly. In fact, this turns out to be a better solution to my problem. I appreciate the fast response; I am again in debt to this site.
