Can someone summarize the purpose, benefits, and specs. of
a Pack/Unpack routine.
I have looked at the AddressBook example and it seems to
basically be a way to store a set of flags at the beginning
of a record that indicates which fields have been stored in
the record. Therefore one does not have to save unnecessary
field data.
So, if one wants to save the 1st, 5th and 10th fields, by
setting the 1st, 5th and 10th flag, allows one to programatically
know what was saved and where it should be retrieved to. How's that
for one long sentance:-)?
Is there more to Pack/Unpack than this?
