Hi
I need to convert a Text or HTML file to Binary has anyone done this successfully ? Do I need an external app or can it be done within Jade ?

Thanks

Iain

If you've read the contents of the file into a string, can you not just type cast the string to a binary? For example:

vars
fileStr : String;
fileBin : Binary;begin

... read the file into fileStr ...
fileBin := fileStr.Binary; // convert to binary
... rest of method ...
end;

Dean.
