When "Overwrite existing file=No" in a text file writer, new data is appended to the end of the file. But if the file output is gzipped then existing file is overwritten. I am testing:

The first output is gzipped and the second one not.

If I execute the workspace () several times, the .txt file grows but the .txt.gz not. Any suggestions?

The CSV writer shows the same behavior.
