FileWrite doesnt write

[Ernesto Orozco]

Hello I am trying to make an Ea that write to a CSV file but I have been trying and dont find where is the error.

This is my first mql4 Code, so I hope you can help. I dont know if it has anything to do but I get 4105 as Error Code.

It compiles, also the world "open" that I placed inside the if of the FileWrite function appears in the journal, so I really have no idea.

There you have the entire code just in case. Thanks in Advance.

Before OrderOpenTime();
you should SelectOrder(.....) first.
