Hopefully, there won't be much to change. My guess would be that the 0C is
in the first position of the file. In a form, this is the letter "V" (as in
"VERSION 5.00"), so you should change the 0C to a "V". Most hex editors I've
seen allow you to change either the hex value or the character
interpretation. Uppercase V is hex 56.

Nice hex editor - something strange going on though - WinZip won't open the
archive but Windows Explorer will explore it! Still, amazingly easy to use.

I have opened the file with the hex editor but its all just zeros. When I
open it with a disk investigator that is basically used to retreive deleted
files, then there is some hex code, but I cannot retreive it.

If it's all zeros, then it's lost, sorry.

I seems to be having the same problem, We have been using a package
called as "Graphics Server" and now have updated to it's newer version
it worked fine with changes in the reference and in code, but while
running with "Start With Full Compile"option it moarned about few
constants which were still refering to the old library after updating
them to new version when I compiled my program following error appeared
and highlited few lines in the code
"2147418113(8000ffff)
Automation Error
Castastrophic Failure"
I tried few things and now this error is coming "Project File thing.VBP
is corrupt, and can't be loaded"
Your earliest reply is urgenly awaited... you can aslo email me on
irfanch1(a)hotmail.com

Cheers!

I'm coping my .VBP file as an additional source of information
