# FileAttr Function

Returns the access mode or the file access number of a file that was opened with the Open statement. The file access number is dependent on the operating system (OSH = Operating System Handle).

If you use a 32-Bit operating system, you cannot use the FileAttr function to determine the file access number.

Sjá einnig: Opna

### Syntax:

      FileAttr (Channel As Integer, Attributes As Integer)

### Return value:

Integer

### Parameters:

Channel: The number of the file that was opened with the Open statement.

Attributes: Integer expression that indicates the type of file information that you want to return. The following values are possible:

1: FileAttr indicates the access mode of the file.

2: FileAttr returns the file access number of the operating system.

If you specify a parameter attribute with a value of 1, the following return values apply:

1 - INPUT (file open for input)

2 - OUTPUT (file open for output)

4 - RANDOM (file open for random access)

8 - APPEND (file open for appending)
