================

The techniques in this sample file can be used to view, access, and 
write to sequential, random, and binary files. After you download and 
run the self-extracting file, the following files are created: 

 - Fileproc.bas(4.30Kb)--The module containing Public Sub and Function
                         procedures for opening files.
 - Readme.txt--The readme file that contains the text of this article.
 - Recedit.bas(309 bytes)--The module containing Public type definitions.
 - Recedit.frm(13.4Kb)--The main form for the sample.
 - Recedit.vbp(516 bytes)--The project file for the sample.
