Reading Binary Files

Leo

8/25/2010 12:39:00 PM

I am trying to learn how to read binary files but can not seem to find
much out there. Can someone give me an example. I think for what I am
trying to read, a Byte array is best so if someone can give me a
generic example reading from a binary file into a byte array then that
would be wonderful.

Private Function ReadFileB(ByVal FileName As String, Data() As Byte) As
Boolean
Dim hFile As Long
On Error GoTo Hell
hFile = FreeFile
Open FileName For Binary As #hFile
ReDim Data(0 To LOF(hFile) - 1) As Byte
Get #hFile, , Data
Close #hFile
Hell:
ReadFileB = Not CBool(Err.Number)
End Function
