Though a time consuming process but effective.Follow the steps:- 1) Open the binary (.exe's) files in binary mode. 2) Read each bytes till EOF 3) Check each bytes whether it is a char or not by using the Character Classification methods in MSDN.Like IsAlpha() ..etc 4) Store the chars and do what ever you want! 5) Last but not least close the file.
