Untyped Binary Files

[Daniel G]

Zitat von sk.Silvia:

but iam not geting it why i had to use the 1 in reset(MFile,1); and rewrite();

'Cause you are working with untyped files.

I don't really now how it works, but the Delphi help says...ehm...damn, i've got the german version. So no quotation.

The help says that "only a blocksize of 1 will almost every time lead to a correct size." And I guess that this has also to do with the size of your buffer you are using in

BlockRead(MFile,tmp,1); because this is also 1.


So long,
Daniel
