Creating a file type....

[captian jaster]

I want to create my own file type(So say a document type..)
I under stand that files work off of headers but is it said in a packed record(Mind you I have only used packed arrays before)

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. MyDoc = Packed Record
2.  Something:Pointer;
3.  Body:String;
4.  B:Boolean;
5. End;
6.  

Or is just done has a record 
Not sure what im doing now

Use a TFileStream:

http://lazarus-ccr.sourceforge.net/docs/rtl/classes/tstream.html

and write your data using:
FS.WriteBufffer(Buffer,Count);
or
FS.WriteAnsiString(S);
or
FS.WriteByte(B);
etc..
