Try asking in an appropriate group. This group is devoted to HTML authoring
for the WWW. (Your problem depends on the character encoding used on the
Mac and the desired encoding on the PC side, and it's really just a matter
of character code conversion.)

Hi, I have these string data: str_data1, str_data2, str_data3, which capture some value after a routine process A.

Hello- I am trying to write a snippet which will open a text file with an integer on each line. I would like to read the last integer in the file.

When I get into larger numbers though (e.g. 502) it only reads in the 2. Is there

I try to follow Steve's paper to build a database, and store a small text file into SQL Server database and retrieve it later. Only difference between my table and Steve's table is that I use NTEXT datatype for the file instead of using IMAGE datatype. I can not use SqlDataReader to read the data. I need your help, Thanks. -David (1) I have a table TestFile for testing: ID int FileName navrchar(255)

Hello World, I made a Windowsform that reads data from a CSV file. It works fine, but when I have read the data of a record I have to re-Debug the form to read another record. So when I put a new seek item in the textbox after I searched for an item and click the seek button.. it seems it is doing nothing. And also... what code can I use to genereate a messagebox message when a seek item is not at all in the CSV file?

Hi, currently I am reading a huge (about 10-100 MB) text-file line by line using fstreams and getline. I wonder whether there is a faster way to read a file line by line (with std::string line). Is there some way to burst read the whole file and later "extract" each line? Thanks in advance, Thomas Kowalski

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
