How to read/write CString from/in CFile ?

please help me, how can I read and write CStrings from/into CFiles ?
I tried e.g
pChar=LPCTSTR(sString);
pFile->Write(pChar, sString.GetLength()+1);
or
pFile->Write(sString, sString.GetLength());

and

pFile->Read(sString.GetBuffer(512), 512);
sString.ReleaseBuffer();

what is wrong ?
How can i write and retrieve that damned CStrings ?

Try using a CArchive, then

CArchive ar;
CString str;
ar << string;


to read:
ar >> string;

Hi,

Look at CStdioFile instead of CFile. It's designed to handle strings.
