Hi Robert, Although I have not looked at the BSE record code myself, I have some information from my own work on Escher diagrams. A BSE record contains a fixed size header, and then may be followed by an optional string (2 bytes per character). Could this string be the file name you have described?

Yes, it does appear to be an Escher BSE Record, however, there seems to be an issue with grabbing some of the info inside it. When I look at the actual data in the byte stream, I can see the file path and name in the data (e.g. D : \ F i l e s \ S o m e I m a g e . j p g ), yet I cannot find that data anywhere inside either POI's EscherBSE Record reading (from 0xF007) nor in any other documentation I've found on that. None of the tags seem to hold that info. Any idea where I read it from? Attempts to read from the case 0xF007 don't work because by the time it hits that tag marker, it's already past the path/filename string and when it reads the name length (at offset 33), it always has length = 0.
