Everyone, I am using openoffice writer to open up a text file that is being created with a null octal \000\ as the end of file marker. When openoffice opens the file it replaces the null with a "#" character.
The software I am using to create the text file is unable to create the text file without a null at the end of the file. Is there a way to get openoffice to ignore the null and not translate the null into a "#" Thanks for your help!!! Greg Ennis ----------------------------------------------------------------- I could not figure out how to get openoffice to ignore the null, but I did figure out a fix for the problem. I wrote a perl script that is activated before openoffice that removes the null at the end of the text file before it passes the file to openoffice. However, if there is a way for openoffice to do this I would be interested in your comments.
