Hi all,

might be a very quick and simple question, but could not find an answer anywhere so far:

From the BaseFile class, which of the Read... commands work on text files?
I know that ReadChar does work, and ReadString only works in binaries.
What does ReadWord do? Does a ReadLong work from a text file?

Thanks for help.

Best regards,
Juergen

Use ReadChar for text files. ReadWord and ReadLong are for binary formats to read integers.

cheers,
Matthias

Just out of curiosity:
What is the difference between LONG, VLONG and WORD?

WORD = 16bit integer
LONG = 32bit integer
VLONG = variable length integer (e.g. 64bit)
