Does anyone know how to open up a file as a hex dump kind of thing? And be able to edit it?



Thanks
 
I use a nifty little shareware utility from Breakpoint called HexWorkshop32. Found it on the WWW.
 
Using MSVC ?? Select file Open, select the file then under "Open As" select binary<br>

Not using MSVC, get CodeWright from You'll never need another editor. Open the file, click button on toolbar to toggle between text and hex. Hex even maintains syntax highlighting<br>

CodeWright is nice. So is Multi-Edit for Windows from American Cybernetics (I don't have their web page memorized, but a search should turn it up). Actually, I think that almost any text editor that's designed for programmers would handle that. [IDE's are another matter. They should, but they rarely do. :-( ]
