hi, i hope this is the right forum and i really hope someone can help.  from 
the documentation:

IMPORTANT: There is always a gap between the final record list in the header 
and the first block of data in the database, where the first block might be one 
of the following: the appInfo block, the sortInfo block, raw record or resource 
data, or the end of the file. The gap is traditionally two bytes long; however, 
if you write code to parse a database, your code should be able to handle any 
size gap, from zero bytes long and up.

How do i determine how long this gap will be?  Or do you just seek to the end 
of the header, then readByte until you hit a non-zero value?

(i'm trying to write a PC program to convert PDB to CVS.  i know there are lots 
out there already, but i'd like to merge this functionality into another 
another program i'd like to write)
