This is a group of functions for working with files. File functions allow working with so-called "named pipes". To do this, simply call FileOpen() function with appropriate parameters.

Function	Action
FileFindFirst	Starts the search of files in a directory in accordance with the specified filter
FileFindNext	Continues the search started by the FileFindFirst() function
FileFindClose	Closes search handle
FileOpen	Opens a file with a specified name and flag
FileDelete	Deletes a specified file
FileFlush	Writes to a disk all data remaining in the input/output file buffer
FileGetInteger	Gets an integer property of a file
FileIsEnding	Defines the end of a file in the process of reading
FileIsLineEnding	Defines the end of a line in a text file in the process of reading
FileClose	Closes a previously opened file
FileIsExist	Checks the existence of a file
FileCopy	Copies the original file from a local or shared folder to another file
FileMove	Moves or renames a file
FileReadArray	Reads arrays of any type except for string from the file of the BIN type
FileReadBool	Reads from the file of the CSV type a string from the current position till a delimiter (or till the end of a text line) and converts the read string to a value of bool type
FileReadDatetime	Reads from the file of the CSV type a string of one of the formats: "YYYY.MM.DD HH:MM:SS", "YYYY.MM.DD" or "HH:MM:SS" - and converts it into a datetime value
FileReadDouble	Reads a double value from the current position of the file pointer
FileReadFloat	Reads a float value from the current position of the file pointer
FileReadInteger	Reads int, short or char value from the current position of the file pointer
FileReadLong	Reads a long type value from the current position of the file pointer
FileReadNumber	Reads from the file of the CSV type a string from the current position till a delimiter (or til the end of a text line) and converts the read string into double value
FileReadString	Reads a string from the current position of a file pointer from a file
FileReadStruct	Reads the contents from a binary file into a structure passed as a parameter, from the current position of the file pointer
FileSeek	Moves the position of the file pointer by a specified number of bytes relative to the specified position
FileSize	Returns the size of a corresponding open file
FileTell	Returns the current position of the file pointer of a corresponding open file
FileWrite	Writes data to a file of CSV or TXT type
FileWriteArray	Writes arrays of any type except for string into a file of BIN type
FileWriteDouble	Writes value of the double type from the current position of a file pointer into a binary file
FileWriteFloat	Writes value of the float type from the current position of a file pointer into a binary file
FileWriteInteger	Writes value of the int type from the current position of a file pointer into a binary file
FileWriteLong	Writes value of the long type from the current position of a file pointer into a binary file
FileWriteString	Writes the value of a string parameter into a BIN or TXT file starting from the current position of the file pointer
FileWriteStruct	Writes the contents of a structure passed as a parameter into a binary file, starting from the current position of the file pointer
FileLoad	Reads all data of a specified binary file into a passed array of numeric types or simple structures
FileSave	Writes to a binary file all elements of an array passed as a parameter
FolderCreate	Creates a folder in the Files directory
FolderDelete	Removes a selected directory. If the folder is not empty, then it can't be removed
