Read binary file as hex

[DrewM]

I'm using ASP to generate an RTF (rich text) file, via the FSO. No
problems with text, but when it comes to inserting images, the files
have to be embedded as either binary or hex.

Try as I might, I can't get binary to work (Word b0rks trying to open
the resulting file). When I create a simple RTF in Wordpad and then view
its source, Wordpad seems to be embedding the image as hex.

Does anyone have a suggestion as to how I could read an image file off
the disk in hex format for writing into my RTF?

Any suggestions gratefully received.

Have you checked out if there are any third party components that would
either do that, or at least do an intemediate conversion?

Yes, but I haven't managed to find anything yet.

Thanks
