    Any ideas?

    Here is the example to create and write to a validation file "val_file". Hope this helps.

    [#PUSH
    #INLINEPREFIX
    val_file
    summary_var
    ]

    ======= Create the new validation file (file size 0) ========
    [#if [#purge [val_file]]]
    fup create [val_file], type u, code 101, buffered, ext 100, &
    maxextents 100, oddunstr

    #SETV summary_var "Adding some text to this file"
    VARTOFILE summary_var [val_file]
