I didn't want to introduce any delays by closing the file, creating a new file, and copying all the variables over including the new variables. I don't know how much of a delay that would introduce though, so I'll find out when I implement it!

I'm not suggesting that you have to create a new file and copy things
over. The example just hows how to do either operation. In the
application for which I wrote the code I had a file containing a lot of
information I wanted in a new file. It was far easier to copy it into
the new file than it was to create it de novo every time.

Cheers,

David
