Where is VS.NET hex editor?
-
Hi folks, it finally got me - I've switched to vs.net, although still using the MFC... For the one or the other reason I've opened several different files (*.exe, *.jpeg, *.zip, *.whatever ...) with the Visual Studio 6 IDE hex editor, simply by specifying "open as binary" in the file open dialog. Is this option is gone in VS.net, or have I missed something. If I try to open a file now, VS seems to use ShellExecute, because depending on the file type the default program starts. So opening a *.chm opens the html help viewer, jpg goes to my paint program etc.... How to open these files in VS.net in hex mode??? Thomas

The "Open" button on the File Open dialog box has a drop-down arrow on it. Click it and select "Open With...". In the ensuing dialog box, select the "binary editor" and click the "Open" button. -- Russell Morris "Have you gone mad Frink? Put down that science pole!"

Russell, :wtf: thank you very much. It's pretty good hidden, isn't it? Thomas Blenkers
