The last time I had a problem like this was back when I was using bare-naked rcs. I did my damage during the checkin, although it only became apparent during the checkout. So your problem may be a different one. Anyway, here are my thoughts. Windows, alas, has two ways of recognizing end of a file. If you have a byte value of decimal 26 in your data, you must process the file in binary mode. The file cvswrappers <http://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs-1.12.4/cvs_18.html#SEC165> can make this easier for files you add to the repository hereafter. You can mark the file as binary in the repository using cvs admin <http://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs-1.12.4/cvs_16.html#SEC120>. Then, of course, you have to fix up any sandboxes having the file. HTH.
