In this case it sounds like the DAAppendFile function might be a better option. It lets you save changes directly to the original file, instead of trying to overwrite it.

Yes. That's the way ;-)
The current process has already a handle on the file...
the complete document structure is built in memory and
you want to change the document on disk - that's not possible 'cause
strange system situations will appear.

Hi,
 
With the file being opened using DAOpenFile and after some changes I want to use DASaveAsFile to save the file under the original name.
 
The DASaveAsFile fails with 402 (Output file already exists and could not be deleted)
 
Yes the actual situation is that the file cannot be deleted.
 
I could save under a different name, delete original then rename the new one.
 
Question: is this the way to go or should DASaveAsFile be able to overwrite the file opened?
