Description

Terminates the association between a file variable and an external file.

Close is provided for backward compatibility with existing code. When writing new applications in Delphi, use CloseFile instead.

F is a file variable of any file type opened using Reset, Rewrite, or Append. The external file associated with F is completely updated and then closed, freeing the file handle for reuse.
