Hi Everyone,
I'm trying to reconstitute a Mac file from an email 'AppleDouble'
attachment. The attachment comes in two halves, the data fork file and a
separate file for the resource fork. I use the data from the first attached
file to create a new file on my hard drive. I now need to write the data
from the second attached file to the resource fork of the new file.
Is there anyway within RealBasic (version 2006r3) of doing this?
I realise that I can write specific resources to a resource fork, but what
I want here is to write the entire resource fork with the binary data
received from the email.
Thanks in advance for any help given.

Dear Tim,
I am not sure of the answer but when I was trying to unzip files
containing a resource fork and a datafork I had all sorts of problems
putting them back together. I did see that Thomas Tempelmann has
written some code that deals with reading and writing resource forks.
Maybe it'll help you. See http://www.tempel.org/rb/#rsrc and the zip
stuff
