Random access files

[derlwyn]

Hi

I am writing an application which uses random acces files

I can write my records to a DAT file, howver sometimes when I try and view the file in notepad (to verify that the record is being saved properly) I cant see the actual data that I entered, I can only see some control characters

Any advice?

This problem seems to be interrmitent

The contents of the records as 2 integer fields and a fixed length string
