accessing an opend and focused file with other programs

I've made a little prog to handle the misfit that in hex-mode opend files cannot be manipulated. The prog is designed to reside in the toolbox, to insert a string to a specific hex adress.
If I try to write to a opend/focused file with this prog, i always get an i/o error. It seems to me that the options allow this ("keep files looked while editing them" is off) but likely there is another 'hidden' option that affects this? Who can help?

In the meantime i figured out that nobody can help unless there will be a small enhancement. So if you are interested in this topic see http://textpad.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4998 and join.
