    SO why do you have the constants in there if they are never called?    Const ForReading = 1    Const ForWriting = 2    Const ForAppending = 8

    It was just a quick utility code snip I added.  Just ignore those two lines.  As the title notes the snip is about writing to a file.  I don't usually post such simple scripts on working with files.  This post is just to provide a basic sample for writing to a file which can be used for samples tied to the primary topics I blog on - Exchange and Outlook related APIs.  I took it from a larger script I wrote a very, very long time ago.
