Binary/Hex/==Whatever!!

[aquarius]

Ok., here's my question.,., I would like to know how to open any certain file and load its contents into a text box., and then resave it!!

And im not talking about Text files here.,.,

I mean something like an EXE!.,,. display its Binary., or Hex data in a Text Box.,., and then reuse that info in the text box to save it as a new file somewhere on HD!

Thanx to anyone!

so basicly you want to copy the file? I'm sorry, I dont know the code, but is that what you need

I think it's impossible because some caracters in a file are hidden like 
when you load it in a text box, the caracter lost is value....
try it:

[code]
open "YOURFILE" for inout as #1
do until EOF(1)
line input #1,temp$
text1.text=text1.text & temp$ & vbcrlf
loop
close #1

open "THECOPY" for output as #1
print #1,text1.text
close #1

shell "explorer THECOPY"

I think your talking about a hex editor. Have a look through these threads for more info.
