This is probably a stupid question, but what's the difference between opening a file in binary mode as opposed to text mode? ifstream binary_file; binary_file.open("info.dat", ios::binary); as opposed to ifstream text_file; text_file.open("info.dat"); // text is the default. Thanks in advance Al [muaddib AT proaxis DOT com]
