------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Feb 9 12:45:28 +0000 2007 ------- I have a DATEV file with fixed len records (256 Bytes) and want to read record by record (in OO Basic). I open it in Random mode with block len 256. The problem is that the first two bytes are skipped and all subsequent records have 2 bytes offset. I expected bytes rec 1: 1 - 256, rec 2: 257 - 512, etc, but I get rec 1: 3 - 258, rec 2: 259 - 514 Something similar happens when writing this files in Random mode: the first two bytes are "away" (I don't remember anymore, because writing the file in binary mode solves the problem) When reading the file in binary mode, the same applies. The first 2 bytes are missing. When I do a subsequent get with a Byte Position (e. g. 2560), again the first two bytes are missing (starts from 2562). Since I don't need the first two bytes, I can program a workaround (in attached file), but that is enerving. I tried, if this is a platform depending problem and did this also on Linux (OO 2.0, SuSE 9.3), but there the get command doesn't work at all (runtime error?!) --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
