Binary File IO

What I would like to do is load a file's contents from a file on the server
and put the contents.

into a record in a database. For this I need to load the contents in binary
format into a

variable. Anywhere I looked, I've only found text I/O in ASP.
(FileSystemObject and TextStream).

How can I load any kinds of file into a byte array? Or is it enough to load
it as a text stream

and then treat the loaded string as a byte array?

Binary File Streaming

I have an exe file on a server that reads an XML file ( as a parameter) and generates a new file for downloading. However, most servers won't allow an exe file to create the new binary file. Is there any way that I can execute the exe file and have it download straight to the client instead of saving to the server?

Does anybody know how to do that?

I have listed the coded that writes it to the screen, but now want to be able to write the information into a file ....

Read Binary File As Hex

I'm using ASP to generate an RTF (rich text) file, via the FSO. No problems with text, but when it comes to inserting images, the files have to be embedded as either binary or hex.

Try as I might, I can't get binary to work (Word b0rks trying to open the resulting file). When I create a simple RTF in Wordpad and then view its source, Wordpad seems to be embedding the image as hex. Does anyone have a suggestion as to how I could read an image file off the disk in hex format for writing into my RTF?

Creating Binary File

I need to extract some blobs (chm files, actually) from a database and save their contents on the server (recreate chm files).

I tried to do it in several ways (writing the contents to a stream and save the stream to file, writing the contents directly to file, I couldn't figure out how to do it by using the class ADODB.File) but none of them worked.

Downloading Zip File As Binary File

I use the following code in an asp.net page to download file from my site to the user:

Response.Buffer = True
Response.Clear()
Response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream"
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=""" & dsDocFile.Tables("tbl_DocFile").Rows.Find(FileID).Item("FileName") & """")
Response.Flush()
Response.WriteFile(sFileName)

This works with most every file type I've run across (jpg, gif, doc, ppt, xls, etc..). Normally when the user tries to access a file, a download window pops up asking the user whether he/she wants to open or save the file.

However, when the file is a zip file, the user just receives a blank screen instead of the usual download window. Has any one run into this problem? If yes, how did you resolve it?

Sending Binary File (PDF) Over SSL Using ASP Script

i have an ASP (iis v5.0) application that generates a pdf file and this file
is saved to the server. it is saved in a location not available to web
users. i have an asp script (below) that sends the pdf file to the user as a
binary stream. So that the user specifies which file to upload, the script
performs some security checking and if it passes, it sends the pdf document.

This works great in HTTP, but i want to do this using SSL. When i try the
same thing over SSL, it gives me a 'File Download' dialog box with Open,
Save, Cancel, More Info. The file name is the name of my script and file
type is 'Adobe Acrobat Control for ActiveX'.

When i click Save or Open i get an error message: Internet Explorer cannot
download [scriptname] IE was not able to open this Internet site. The
requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found. Please try again
later.

The key to all this is that the report can change and i need to make sure
the data doesn't get cached along the way. Hence there are a bunch of header
manipulation commands included in the send function. Code:

POSTing A Binary File Using Multipart/form-data

I'm trying to setup an ASP page to POST an image across to another page- essentially simulating what a browser does when you use <input type=file> in a HTML form.

I'm able to correctly setup the headers etc and do the POST, but I'm unable to include the binary data of the image.

The only way i've been able to do it is if I base64 encode the image. I'm using MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP to do the POST, and I can't seem to do the .send with a form body that includes the binary data of the image. Code:

Binary Streaming

Here is a written descripton of my webpage.
One frame split down the middle. The left side is the menu and the right
displays what is selected from the menu.

the user selects from the menu and on the right, clicks on "download image"
link. the user is presented with a download dialog box. The user saves the
image and when it is completed goes and selects another item from the menu.
But this time nothing happens.

It is like i have to refresh the page before anything works again. It is
like it is stuck on the ASP binary stream file that forced the download.

on my link i have

<a href="donwload.asp" target="right">download image</a>

How can i fix this?

Using Binary Write

I am having trouble trying to output an image using Binary.Write. I have a page which displays a record. One of the fields is an image and I want to display this on the page.

My question is this: Is it possible to use the Binary write command i.e. Binary.Write("MyDatabaseField") on the same page that I want the image displayed on?

If not Is there a way to nest it inside an image tag as follows:

Response.Write("<img src=" & binaryWrite("mydatabasefield" & ">")

Binary Bit Masks

I'm working on a client project where i'm importing some data from a programme to a sql database.One of my fields contains a value which is created by bit flags Within this value are 10 bit flags, and i need to find out the value of each flag. An example of one of the bit flags is 0x0001

I'm guessing that it is to do with Binary and I need to apply a bit masks, but that's where my expertise ends.

ASP Binary Data Transformation

I'm using ADODB.Stream to open a binary file on the server and write
it down to the browser using Response.BinaryWrite. It's working fine,
but i need to make some changes to the binary data before it is send
to the browser.

I'm trying to use REPLACE, but it's not finding a string that i know
it's in the binary file. Using InstrB i've found that the search
inside the binary data is being done in a Unicode format, but i don't
know how to make an ascii search&replace operation on binary data.

Streaming Binary Files

I am working on an app that needs to stream binary files(such as PDF or WORD docs) to the browser. I cannot just pass a URL pointing to the file directly. I've tried the following in an ASP file:
Code:

Response.ContentType = "application/doc"
Response.BinaryWrite strData

where strData contains the binary data content of the WORD file in a string variable (for PDF, I would set the content type to "application/pdf").
However, the browser displays the data itself, rather than hosting the doc in the appropriate browser applet.

Convert Binary To Octal

i have searched and can't seem to find how to do this
here it will ask the user to enter in a sequence of binary numbers that are separated by a period. For an IP there are 4 sets of 8 numbers that are separated by a period; 32 numbers, 3 periods. Once the user entered 0 and 1 i have to somehow convert that to octal and display the result on a new page with the octal answer.

Copy Binary Field

I use AspUpload to save files in a MSSQL database, orks just fine.Now I need to copy this binary from one table to another. DataType is image.

I found the answer:in MSSQL ntext, text and image datatypes of large values have to be handled by Transact-SQL fuctions handling data block by block.(the field itself has only a pointer to the data).

String Or Binary Data

I am having the following error when submitting dynamic data to an SQL Server database:

String or binary data would be truncated. This is of course happening when longer datafields are being inserted. I've tried changing the data types in the database itself, but that does not solve the problem. Do I need to change the data type of the field before it is submitted to the database?
