File Conversion...

[Randi A. Dertzo]

Is there a way (using VBA) to convert a file from Binary to text?

I need to attach a text file for read only purposes.

Thanks in advance!

Yes there is -although it's quite a long way...

Use:

Open "C:\Dat\FileName.1234" AS #1

etc...

Thanks MHM but I found a simpler way of doing what I needed outside access. I simply use a batch file that converts the binary to text and then start acces where the txt has been linked to this new txt.
