View 6 RepliesI am trying to serialize object in method binary mode. However, I would like to get a file in human-unreadable format. which means i want to encrypt file. In my memory, if i want to write text into binary file in C, when I set writing mode as binary, I will get a file in human-unreadable format, but in .net, I can't get that.

I see, to my supprise, when I tried to installed the Access Database Engine drivers that you cannot run both 32 bit and 64 on the same machine (I have Office 64 bit installed). If SQL can do it? So I have this nice new 64 bit machine with 64 bit office and my hands are tied... Can't correct code in 64 bit mode, can't read Access databases in 32 bit mode. I just have a hard time with 64 bit being out since XP, that this it just not fixed yet. Humm the Behemoth that is now Microsoft. Want to use OLEDB?

I don't know how I can read the first 13 characters in a variable like in C ( with char[13] ). My idea is to read the first 13 characters, skip the next 5 characters for change with 5 '-', and next read the rest of the line. I need to read as Binary because it have some special characters.

So now I am trying by opening up Word uses the sample code I found below. The problem is I want the users to ONLY be able to READ the doc. No Editing, Printing, or Saving.

Oh right, and I'm making it comma seperated values so I can pull it up in a readable format again.

To read a record in a binary file in VB^ I would define a type with all the fields specifying strings as STRING * whatever the length of the field was.
For example:
Type Record
Field1 as string *15
Field2 to as string * 20
Field3 as String * 10
field4 as byte(10)
End Type
Dim filerecord as record
I would the open my binary fiel and do a Get#1,, filerecord
The record would be read and all the fielsd would be in place.
Now with the new Structure we cant dimension an array in the Structure And wjhen declaring strings we can't specify the length.

So how do I do this. Or has Microsoft in their infinite wisdom left no way to do this.

The problems is that it returns something like: "V???????=dQ???!u?1?" What the ____ is that anyway? So in reality it should be like "c3gm322dvf" or something like that.

Im trying to read and write to a file in binary.to give an example of what im trying to do i have posted a picture below.the string is 12 bytes long and each four bytes has a float.the one in red is set at 1 and green and blue are 0 giving the read as the overall color. i have been trying to get this well i tried once and gave up but its been awhile.i have this so far but it doesnt work. this is kinda what i got to read the bytes out but its messed for i have been trying everything i could think of
Code:

View 1 RepliesSome binary files have application variables at the end if you open it with a text editor you can see these variables. Now when I read these files into the processor memory the program does not work properly, however if I read a file without this it works fine. So how can I read a byte[] array to EOF so that when I pass that byte array into win32 api create-process it will create the process without corrupting the program?
View 3 RepliesI am trying to make a program in Visual Basic 2010 that should do the following:
-Open file as binary
-Start with position 57 and read the following characters until a 0 is found, print the whole name
Inside the binary file, all the files' names end with 0 (which should not be printed), example:
B000000.dat0
eft.dat0
G000000000.b70
For the above examples, the names that should be printed are B000000.dat, eft.dat, G000000000.b7 respectively. The code I wrote is below. The problem is that i am not sure how to read the name until the 0 is found since the names are variable in length and so are the extensions(dat, b7). Also some names have 0 in them which makes things difficult.
Using gs As New FileStream(fileName, FileMode.Open)
gs.Position = 57
Using gr As New BinaryReader(gs)
For x As Int16 = 57 To 70
Dim textvar(x) As String
textvar(x) = gr.ReadChar
text3 = textvar(x) & (gr.ReadChar)
Next
End Using
End Using
I am using BinaryReader class to read binary file.But I am facing problem while reading number of bytes from it.I have written code to read only 2 bytes from it,it works well on my machine and read only 2 bytes,but when I deployed that code on server machine it read 4 bytes from file.Whats wrong in the code?Is it due to processor i.e.. 32 bit processor/64 bit processor.
