He he... my first real proggie opened up a file on a sage accounting system and decoded the file to get passwords and logon names. I already worked out how to decode the file, but I used C to do it for me..... Took about a week to do and it was on reflection the worst bit of coding imaginable........ I didnt know how to search directories for this file and so resorted to using System() with dos commands and then output them into another text file to read.....
Sloppy... but it did work.....
