I want to read content from frm file. But i can not read
the picturebox picture filename, List items value, Multi
Line text value. All these are stored in a .frx file. I
want the picture file path, List item values. How can i
read the information from the .frx file.
 
Hi Viswanathan,

.FRX is a VB6 file format. We've given them up (nasty things) in VB.NET -
nice readable (??!!) XML files for us.

As .FRX is a Microsoft proprietory file format and is unpublished, you
might find it hard to get hold of a spec. This company has a utility which can
read FRX files: http://www.iscreations.com/frxsplit/index.htm

Regards,
Fergus

This is a VB.NET language group. For older versions please turn to one of
the micosoft.public.vb.* groups.

If you are talking about VB Classic's Stash files, you should post to
one of the VB Classic groups (microsoft.public.vb.*). I remember that
you can find a tool to read data from these files at [1].

Hi Herfried,

But footnotes are supposed to come at the end - after your name and
everything - you know, at the 'foot' of the page.

Yours are tummynotes. ;-)
