how can i read a doc file or xls file???
this is what ive tried but cant get past the fourth character
int main()
{ifstream fp;
fp.open("p9.doc");
char buffer;
while(fp )
{buffer=fp.get();
cout<<buffer;
}
im just interested in getting all the character bytes in order to compress the file, but i cant read the whole file. It kgets to an end of file byte i suppose.
I presume p9.doc is an MS word file?
It might be returning bad characters (odd, but possible) which causes the stream to fail.
Try
fp.open("p9.doc",ios::binary);
