| Title | QTIPS - Truncating DOS Files |
| Keywords | OSBWRITE |
| Text | Richard Guise informs us of an interesting use for the OSBWRITE command It seems that if you want to truncate a file at a fixed length the easiest way is to OSBWRITE a null onto the character position to truncate at Thus if a file were 10 MB in length and only the first 5 MB were required one would OSBWRITE "" on File_Var at 5120000 (Volume 4 Issue 1 Page 4) |
