Binary to text

I have a problem converting binary to text

I am reading a page using xmlhttp

xmlhttp.open "GET", url, false ,"userName","pa ssword"
xmlhttp.send ""
tex3 = xmlhttp.respons eBody

now I have the binary data of the html page I am reading

I can write this data to the asp page using

Response.Binary Write tex3

but I don't want to write it, I want to send it in a email but when I do I
get a load of ??????''??????' ?????'
I need to convert it to ASCI
I have tried

tex3 = BinaryToText( tex3)

but did not work

any ideas?

I am using responseBody because responsetext has a problem of converting "'"
to "?"

thanks

What does binary mode for an ofstream object do anyway? Despite which mode the stream uses, operator << writes numeric value as their ASCII representation. I read on the Internet that it is possible to change the behavior of operator << so it will stream numeric values as their actual values when an ofstream is in binary mode. I did not, however, find any information on how this can be accomplished. What is involved in getting this...

I am writing a quick program to edit a binary file that contains file paths (amongst other things). If I look at the files in notepad, they look like: <gibberish>file//g:\pathtofile1<gibberish>file//g:\pathtofile2<gibberish> etc. I want to remove the "g:\" from the file paths. I wrote a console app that successfully reads the file and writes a duplicate of it, but fails for some reason to do the "replacing" of the "g:\". The code...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
