How can we read and write some string into a text file using VBScript? I mean I have a text file which is already present so when I use this code below:-

Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject" )            
Set file = fso.OpenTextFile("C:\New\maddy.txt",1,1) 

This opens the file only for reading but I am unable to write anything and when I use this code:-

Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject" )            
Set file = fso.OpenTextFile("C:\New\maddy.txt",2,1)

I can just use this file for writing but unable to read anything. Is there anyway by which we can open the file for reading and writing by just calling the OpenTextFile method only once.

I am really new to VBScript. I am only familiar with C concepts. Is there any link to really get me started with VBScript?

I guess I need to have a good knowledge of the objects and properties concepts.
