Are there any good tutorials for understanding how to use File Streams and
how to read and write recognizable data?

Thanks

There is a help file I wrote on streams which is on the FAQ site for
this NG. It may not have the latest stream objects though.

The concept of a stream is not that appropriate. The data is more like
a path or road, with a beginning and an end. You can position yourself
along the road, and (if no-one is looking) dig up a length of the road
and place it elsewhere <g>. Or put a new surface on it.

Streams are really a very useful concept and very easy to use once you
grasp the basics. They really are a chunk of data with a lot of the
grunt code for manipulating your access and position hidden.
