Thanks Joe - as simple as that. Text encoding - I was copying and pasting
small versions
of the file to create tests and thereby changing the text encoding from Unix to
PC

Subject: Re: Short files OK - Long files KO
I doubt it's related to the length of the file, but some other difference.
- What about text encodings?
- Do you get an exception that bails out of this method for some
reason? Make sure BreakOn Exceptions is enabled in the debugger to
find out.
- Single step through the code to see what's going on.
- Try writing to a different file to better see what's going on. Is
the original data not being over written at all or is the new data
the same as the original data for some reason.
Hope this helps,
Joe
Hey all
Trying to achieve something relatively trivial here in RB 5.5. All
I want to do is pull out the
EndOfLine characters from a file. The below works fine for short
files, but when I throw a 200Kbyte
file at it, the result is no changes made. Any suggestions as to
where I'm going wrong, a 64k limit
somewhere?
dim f as folderitem
dim s as binarystream
dim a as string
f=getopenfolderItem("????")
s=f.openasbinaryFile(True)
a=s.read(s.length)
a=replaceall(a,endofline,"")
s.length=0
s.position=0
s.flush
s.write a
s.close
Regards
AP
