Thanks for your anwser. The documentation was clear. At this moment i am VB and VFP programmer under windows, and i don't know Perl. My problem is that i have an ESP+ storage repository (.rep), that was copy from solaris system two years ago and i need recover the information. When i open the file with bynary editor, the file is binary. My questions are:
Can I convert the .rep to text file under windows with your programm?
How i can transform binary metacode into text metacode?
When you say: "they required separate handling.", what do you want to say exactly?
Thanks for your help
