Let's say I have a valid reference to a FolderItem for a document that's
currently being edited by a user. This document has already been saved
previously. So then the user makes some changes, and the dirty flag is set.
Now the user selects "Save". When I save the document, I'm writing out the
entire file (as a text stream) each time. My question is... Should I be
deleting the existing file before saving? My testing has indicated that
this is not necessary - i.e. that I can just re-open the text stream and
overwrite what's there - but I wanted to know if this is bad practice for
any reason.
Thanks for the help,
