Close File question

[charles61]

Hi Mark,

This is the script that I have tried using the close command for "Don't Save". I tried the following which did not work in the script below: 
Close file "file:" & gOpenDataFile


case "New Student Referral"
      go to card "referral"  
      
      if field "first" of card "referral" is not empty then ---> Name field is not empty.
         if gOpenDataFile is not empty then  ---> A saved file is open.
            set the itemDel to "/"
            put item -1 of gOpenDataFile into tFileName
            answer warning "Save changes to " & tFileName &"?" with "Don't Save" or "Cancel" or "Save" titled "Save File"
            
            --->answer warning "Save changes to: "with "Don't Save" or "Cancel" or "Save" titled "Save File?"
            --->Your changes will be lost if you do not save them.
            
            if it = "Don't Save" then close file "file:" & gOpenDataFile -->New 10-25-10: Close file
