A finishing blow question. Nice XD

So what is the problem?

You have the functions:

OpenNewFileForWriting(string FileName, bool ShareForReading = false)
WriteToFile(int FileHandle, string DataToWrite)
CloseFile(int FileHandle)

All you need beside this is the FileName (incl. the path!!) and the string to be written into the csv-file.

the difference between FileOpen and CreateFile is huge and besides:

Note This function FileOpen has limited capabilities and is not recommended. For new application development, use the CreateFile function.

        GetEnvironmentVariableW("USERPROFILE", f, StringLen(f));
        fName = f + "\\Documents\\yourFolder\\" + fName;
