Hello guys,
I'm using MapViewOfFile to map a file and try to edit its data and save it on the file.
The problem I have extra data to the file required to expand its size.
So, how to append data to the end of memory mapped file using CreateFileMapping and MapViewOfFile?

Just specify a file size equal to (size of file you're mapping + size of extra data) when you call CreateFileMapping.
Read http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-au/library/windows/desktop/aa366542(v=vs.85).aspx - specifically the part about File Mapping Size.
