Thanks James. Your replacement suggestion is working good. Only thing I have to solve now is handling '\' literal. If I have '\' in my string, it is missing when I assign it from server vbscript to cleint javascript. I tried replacing \ with \\, but no use.

The activeX control from C++ is posting data in binary. I am able to read the data in ASP using Response.BinaryWrite(Request.BinaryRead(Request.To talBytes)) Is there any easy way to read or convert it into string in my ASP? I tried Request.Form("MyInput") and Request("MyInput") but no help. modified on Tuesday, April 22, 2008 12:13 PM

I built postdata param as follows: CComVariant postData("MyInput=My Custom Input"); char* postDataString = "MyInput=My Custom Input"; int len = strlen(postDataString); postData.vt = VT_ARRAY; postData.parray = SafeArrayCreateVector(VT_UI1, 0, len); void HUGEP* safeData; SafeArrayAccessData(postData.parray, &safeData); memcpy(safeData, postDataString, len); SafeArrayUnaccessData(postData.parray); May be i am doing something wrong on ASP side to retrieve this postdata. I am novice in ASP. Can somebody tell me ASP command to retrieve it?
