Splitting Files

[Guest]

Dear all,

Is there any easy way to split a file into several smaller files and then
recompose it? Which namespace should I use?

Thanks for any help,

Tedmond

"Easy" is a relative term. Use the System.IO namespace classes,
specifically, the FileStream class.

Should be pretty easy. All you need to do is use standard filestream
operations. Read through the source file and write out each X number of
bytes to a file named something like (file_0, file_1, etc). To put it back
together simply read through the file_# files in order appending them to a
new file. The namespace is System.IO
