Reading a file one byte at a time

[Wesley]

Hi,

I'm trying to create a module which will open a file and
read one byte at a time. I have created a form and added
four textbox's, labeled: Binary, Hex, Ascii, Dec.
I've also added two command buttons, labeled: Previous
Byte, Next Byte.

I'm wanting to write code which will open any file and
read in the first byte, then display it in the textbox's
in the format of Binary, Hex, Dex, Ascii, and use the
command buttons to move back and forth in the file. I've
also added a textbox labeled: strPath, which is the fill
path and filename to open.

I've looked at VBA help and can only find help using the
getchuck method, also searched knowledge base and found
nothing that gets me started.

Moved post to the correct group, sorry.

Don't know how to kill this from this group.

I am positive you will find code for a complete HEX editor over in VB
land that you could easily modify to work with Access. Search
GoogleGroups and the Web.
