See Also Properties Methods

##### Description

> Facilitates sequential access to file.

##### Syntax

> TextStream.{property | method}

> The property and method arguments can be any of the properties and methods associated with the TextStream object. Note that in actual usage TextStream is replaced by a variable placeholder representing the TextStream object returned from the FileSystemObject.

##### Remarks

> In the following code, a is the TextStream object returned by the CreateTextFile method on the FileSystemObject:

> >     Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
> >     Set t = fso.CreateTextFile("c:\testfile.txt", True)
> >     t.WriteLine("This is a test.")
> >     t.Close

> WriteLine and Close are two methods of the TextStream Object.
