Newbie Help Floppy Problem
if it is just copying the file, use
FileCopy source, destination
were source is "A:\file.ext" end destination "C:\file.ext" or something
If you must change any data use
Open "sourcefile.ext" for input as 1
Open "destination.ext" for output as 2
While Not Eof(1)
Line Input #1, tmp$
Print #2, tmp$
Wend
Between Input and Print you can change data
If you want to read in Binary mode:
Open "sourcefile.ext" for binary access read as 1
Open "destination.ext" for binary access write as 2
Dim tmp string * 1
For i = 1 to Lof(1)
Get 1, i, tmp
Put 2, i, tmp
Next
Between Get and Put you can change data
