Method for FSO to generate a file and set its properties to read-only

When creating a file with Fso, the return is a TextStream object...

When Fso wants to set the properties of a file or folder, what you must get is a file or folder object.

Make a file. Then use GetFile to get the File object of this file. Then set its Attributes property value and it is fine.
