‎11-13-2012 09:27 AM

Hi,

 

Does anyone know why i get 4 bytes for nothing?? See the attached file...

 

I am writing an export file mechanism and have to write the header in ASCII to the same file... But i always get 4 bytes in front of my file??

Length of the string is prepended (I32 = 4 bytes).  There's an input on the top of the write function to turn this off.
