//Append Mode
private StreamWriter outputfile = new StreamWriter("c:\\testfile.txt", true);

public void SetFile() {
     this.outputfile.WriteLine("Test");

}

-----------------------------------------------------------------
main class
  FileRead Testing1 = new FileRead();
  Testing1.SetFile();

Its working good.
