[RESOLVED] How to get the data from a picture in text

[TehWhale]

I have a square.gif picture. I need to get the data somehow from that file, and then be able to open a new file, (new.gif) and then write that data, close the file, and it should be the exact same as before.

Thanks for all your help!

FileOpen with binary flag.

Ah, simple enough! Thanks dude!

EDIT: Do I also open it with 16 to write it?

This isn't working.

If Not FileExists(@TempDir & "\square.gif") Then
        $a__a_Handle = FileOpen(@TempDir & "\square.gif", 16)
        FileWrite($a__a_Handle, "0x47494638396117001700F72A00000000FFFFFF7B91B42B4F822D508"& _

That binary data is the stuff I got from the picture

You forgot to use Write mode for FileOpen(). Use 18 and it works.
