I've had instances where writing B64 email body text with VB displays correctly in the new msg window, but arrives w/all UCase converted to LCase. My solution to preserve the original B64 is to convert each character to its Hex equivalent as follows: Garry R2Fycnk= 52324679636E6B3D ..which all are plain text strings. Otherwise the B64 string arrives as "r2fycnk="! The reason for the need is because the B64 string is the result of encrypting a license profile and outputting the result (byte data) in B64 so it behaves like a string when being processed as a plain text file. -- Garry Free usenet access at http://www.eternal-september.org Classic VB Users Regroup! comp.lang.basic.visual.misc microsoft.public.vb.general.discussion
