I made a prog that writes all of the chars from ASCII table to a single file
(256 of the characters), and they are there (checked with Notepad), and I
can open it and read from it with a piece of code in the same prog, but if I
copy that same code for reading in another (new) program., it doesent work.
(It count that there is 256 bytes in that file, but when I print them, the
the screen is plank - like it's printing 256 enters). What might be the
problem? Thanks. May God be praised!

Can you not show your code, I cannot imagine it is likely to be very
long. Also sometimes the actual characters displayed look different
with various Text or Graphics Windows or when running under the old
DOS, or using different Programming languages.

Some characters such as those under 32 like 9, 10, and 13 are used to
control the printineg etc.
