Thanks Mark. Would you happen to know of any examples out there especially
for binary files?

Hi Keith,
Unless I misuderstand you, you should be able to do what you want using
byte and binfile (and the read and write commands or the put url command).

Hello All,
I am new to LiveCode and am continuing to explore the language.
Quick question... Is it possible to write to and from a binary file
utilizing LiveCode? For example, is it possible to take a graphic file
(for example) and split it into several unequal parts, and then put the
parts back together again into a single file? I have used another
programming package to accomplish such.
FYI: Reading in the Dictionary, I came across the byte and binfile
entries. Can these be used to accomplish what I am looking for? If so,
then are there any good examples out there?
Thanks, and any help is most appreciated!
Cheers from Florida!
