You have made an error in this line
    if (Buy=True)
The above does not test to see if Buy is True, but FORCES Buy to be
True. Do this instead:
    if (Buy == True)
or simply: 
    if (Buy)
Doing this now brings up an error that you can't use arrays in if()
statement so you must change it to:
    if (LastValue(Buy))
Of course the above code must come AFTER your Buy = statement.

Finally you need to use \\ in filenames. 
    fh = fopen( "C:\/alerts.csv", "a");

Yes, I understand that. What I'm not sure of is exactly where to 
place the code in my AFL or how to trigger it. I currently have 
something similar to the following, but it's not giving me the 
desired results:

// Begin Code Snippet
AlertIf( Buy, "", "Alert: "+Name(), 1 );
if (Buy=True)
{
	fh = fopen( "C:\alerts.csv", "a");
	if( fh ) 
	{ 
		fputs( Name()+","+DateTime()
+","+Close+","+High+"\n", fh );
		fclose(fh);
	}
	else
	{
		printf("Error opening file");
	}
}
// End Code Snippet

The alerts are showing up in Amibroker's alert window just fine. But 
the alerts.csv file is never being appended.
