Removing *EOF*s

Keywords: 	  removing *EOF*s

Question:

How or can i take a file and remove the *EOF* - I've tried to use the fileappend but the second file does not show up. The file size shows that it is there but when I open it all I get is the first file.

Answer:

Ummm perhaps you are fighting with the old DOS 1.0 EOF character 0x1A maybe

If the first file has a 0x1A on the end, then you append a second file...some editors will see the 0x1A and figure that is the end of file. Other editors will ignore it.

If this is the problem you have to remove the 0x1A from the file. Ummm
