- The FileMode byte reserves certain bits to specify different capabilities.
- They are:
-
- 76543210
- --------
- .....000 - Read access
- .....001 - Write access
- .....010 - Read/write access
- ....0... - Reserved - must be zero
- .000.... - Sharing mode - compatibility mode ["no sharing"?]
- .001.... - Sharing mode - read/write access denied
- .010.... - Sharing mode - write access denied
- .011.... - Sharing mode - read access denied
- .100.... - Sharing mode - full access permitted
- 0....... - Inherited by child processes
- 1....... - Private to current process

- I got this out of a pocket DOS/BIOS reference -- hope it helps.
