hi,
when i try to unpickle a pickled file in binary format, i get this
error:

E:\mdi>test.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "E:\mdi\qp.py", line 458, in OnReadButton
data=p.load(file("ques.dat","r"))
EOFError

what is the reason? how do i overcome this?
Thanks in advance for you valuable time

You have to open your file in binary mode for both dumping and loading the
data. For that just add a "b" to the mode parameter, e. g.

file("ques.dat", "rb").
