Issue/Introduction
Error Message :
U02000221 Unable to open Text file ' c:\temp\meine_datei_0.txt ', reason: '2 - The system cannot find the file specified.'.
Using a script function :WRITE_PROCESS does not work as expected when the file to append to does not exist.
If the file c:\temp\file_0.txt file does not exist, the above error message is displayed.the append function only works if the file already exists. The expected behavior is that :WRITE_PROCESS will create the file if needed.
