Hello.

I have a simple question

Suppose the following

OpenWrite["file1.dat"]
OutputStream["file1.dat", 6]

Do[WriteString["file1.dat", i, "    ", i^3, "\n"], {i, 1, 8}];
Close["file1.dat"]
"file1.dat"

The created file is saved in the following directory

Directory[]
"C:\\Program Files\\Wolfram Research\\Mathematica\\5.2"

How can I save a file created in this way in another directory
e.g. in

$BaseDirectory
"C:\\Documents and Settings\\All Users\\Application Data\\Mathematica"

Thanks.
