Hi... I would like to search for a hex string (for example: "E903") inside a
binary file...
Although I open the file correctly, how do I search hex values?
Thanks in advance!

Nikos,
Are you looking for the character string "E903" or for the two-byte
value 59651? Either way, once you know what bytes you are looking for, you
need to open the file with a FileStream, and cycle through all of the bytes,
looking one-by-one for a match.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply... I am actually looking for character string "E903"...
I am stuck with the search routine. How to search hex values?
Should I load all file contents to an array and search? Or, is it possible
to just read the file byte after byte and examine the offset of the search
string?

Nikos,
I would just read the file byte by byte, keeping a buffer of the last n
bytes read, where n is the length of the bytes you want to search for. If
you are looking for that character string, then you should use the GetBytes
method on the AsciiEncoder class in the System.Text namespace to get the
bytes that the string actually is comprised of.

Alright I needed some help regarding a removal of a binary search

own, so no patronizing please. I have most of the code working, even
the removal, I just don't know how to keep track of the parent, so
that I can set its child to the child of the node to be removed.

The following code works fine. It opens file reads the data and then
closes.

Dim objFileInfo As FileInfo = new FileInfo(strFilePath)
Dim objStream as StreamReader = objFileInfo.OpenText()
Dim strContents as String = objStream.ReadToEnd()

Hi, im trying to create a small function which can create a binary tree
from the entries in a text file and after that we can perform all the

Hi
I have a binary file which contains records sorted by Identifiers
which are strings. The Identifiers are stored in ascending order. I
would have to write a routine to give the record given the Identifier.
The logical way would be to read the record once and put it in an STL
container such as vector and then use lower_bound to search for a
given identifier. But for some strange reason i'm asked to not use a
container but instead...
