I would say: "my application isn't able to take advantage of fopen", because I'm pretty sure fopen works fine on your system.
If the Lord God Almighty had consulted me before embarking upon the Creation, I would have recommended something simpler.

Actually it does if used correctly. Care to show us a code snippet?

TRY.log file is what i want to create
pchFilePath = ""c:\\Documents and Settings\\Kapardhi\\Desktop\\Oct22\\\\TRY.log";
CFile *fp;
fp = fopen(pchFilePath, "a+");
it gives unhandled exception error after execution of fopen ();

Why are you doing this?

So why do you not show what is happening after execution of fopen()?

that is the path where i want to create the file
At the end there are \\\\ i.e computer takes as
"c:\Documents and Settings\Kapardhi\Desktop\Oct22\\MyTry.log"
this"\\" implies any string before "\\" is path, and string after "\\" is the name of the file to be created

You totally missed the question. Why are you using the 2 extra backslashes?

While the compiler may excuse the "error" and the file is indeed getting opened, I would consider changing it to a single backslash to avoid any future problems.

You should create your own OS in order to fullfill such a requirement.

No, it appears that you are wasting ours. How can you expect to get help when you do not answer our questions, and withold important information? We're not mind readers. Several here will bend over backwards to help those in need, but it all starts with you providing all relavent information.

Actually it's not. I would never do that, but the compiler is a little more forgiving.

It's invalid for Mr. Operative System, not for Mr.Compiler.
Am I wrong?

Have you made a test of his snippet, with the double 'double quotes'?
Have you really assigned a FILE pointer to a CFile * variable?
Does it work?
I'll try.

Yes, sort of.

No, I totally overlooked that part.  I just assumed it was being assigned to a FILE*. Mark that as another thing I would not do.

Well, hence you know it doesn't compile (with the duplcate startin double quotes), at least on VC6.

I had no doubt about. It obviously doesn't even compile.

Prior to using CFile, this worked fine:
FILE *pFile = fopen("C:\\Documents and Settings\\davidc\\My Documents\\\\LotusInstall.log", "a+");
fprintf(pFile, ...);
fclose(pFile);Trying to assign fopen()'s return value to a CFile object, rather than a CStdioFile object, is what the compiler is complaining about.

Yeah, I made a test, following your advice. It seems you can put the double slash almosta anywhere...
