Hello Everyone,
I had the need to search large binary files for a string. The files
could be over a gigabyte in size, so I decided not to load the whole
file into ram but digest in chunks instead. This is the routine I

Hi Todd,
Have you looked at the 'seek' command? It allows you
to go straight to a certain position in the file, and
then you can use 'read' to grab the chunk you're after

Hi Alex,
I am doing a project. I plan to use RR and a reliable
database for the project. I have some questions:
1. What is the best, easy-to-use and easy-to-learn database for RR?
2. Where can I find tutorials about RR and database?
I favour AltSQL from www.altuit.com Chipp and the

Todd, the only problems I see are 1) that you might miss ocurrences
where the looked for string crosses chunk boundaries, and 2) You
never close the file, and as I understand it from the docs, Rev will
only close the file for you when the application quits.

Hello Arthur,
You could make a 16x16 pixels small screenshot of the background
pattern you want and import that as an image control. Then set the
backdrop to the id number of that image. You can also use the numbers
1 to 164 (built-in patterns).
Best,
Mark

Have you tried Flip4Mac? Having to install additional software is not
very attractive for software that is distributed, but if re-encoding
is not an option, Flip4Mac might be the solution.

I did look at the seek command, but I don't get
how it can be
applied here. I don't know the position of the

how could I seek to it.
I may be misunderstanding what seek does?

Hello everyone,
I just upgraded to Enterprise 2.7.1 from 2.7 and noticed that the
folder Revolution Enterprise contains a sub-folder folder named
2.7.0-gm-1 with a copy of the old version of the application. Do I
need to keep it?

Asking which is best, easy-to-use and easy-to-learn database for RR is a bit
like asking How long is a piece of string?
There are so many variables that inform such a decision.
Here are a few off the top of my head.

This is not quite true. Rev does permit modification of data in a
