i'm converting a string ,letter by letter into ascii codes, adding 3 to each ascii code and converting them back into string.


so "hello" would become "khoor"

Im saving this to a textfile.

The problem is that when im reading it back from the textfile and converting it back to the original string the code puts two little squares after it.

Dim fso As New FileSystemObject
Dim s, stext As String
Dim objTextStream
ArticleText.Text = ""
s = Data.Files(1)
Set objTextStream = fso.OpenTextFile(s, 1)
stext = objTextStream.ReadAll

so my stext has two squares at the end :0(

does anyone know why?

thanks
