How to convert binary data to text format in visual basic 6
Can you provide more details about what data you have, and what format you want to convert it to? "Binary" is a very vague term. Everything in your computer is made up of binary data. that includes strings, numbers, and everything else.

Assume that disk space is not an issue (the files will be small < 5k in general for the purpose of storing preferences) Assume that transportation to another OS may never occur. Are there any solid reasons to prefer text files over binary files files?

I have an off-the-shelf app that uses an Access database as its backend. One of the tables contains a field with an "OLE Object" datatype. I'm writing some reports against this database, and I believe this field contains data I need. When I view the table in datasheet view, all I can see in this field is the string "Long binary data". So, I've got the problem of needing to extract data from this field, but I don't know what format...

Hi... I would like to take a string like 'supercalifragilisticexpialidocius' and write it to a file in binary forms -- this way a user cannot read the string in case they were try to open in something like ascii text editor. I'd also like to be able to read the binary formed data back into string format so that it shows the original value. Is there any way to do this in Python? Thanks!

In the beginning (Kernighan & Ritchie 1978) there was fprintf, and unix write, but no fwrite. That is, no portable C method for writing binary data, only system calls which were OS specific. At C89 fwrite/fread were added to the C standard to allow portable binary IO to files. I wonder though why the choice was made to extend the unix function write() into a standard C function rather than to extend the existing standard C function...

Hi all, I'm looking for the fastest way to convert an array of bytes to String. I also need to convert a String back to its original Byte() representation. Convert.ToBase64String and Convert.FromBase64String seem like the closest thing I can find to what I'm looking for baked into the base class library. Can anyone suggest a better way to do this? TIA - Bob
