wat i need is c programming code...
anyway, thanz a lot...Mohammad Rastkar
still need help!!

I don't have a sample code for C, but I know the process is the same, and just the statements vary. I recommend you to use C++, as you know the C syntax is not standard for programming nowadays, and C++ syntax is easier and better (it has two pluses!  ).

I am not quite sure what you want!! I know how to save variables of different types (i.e. array strings (chars), integer, BOOL, float, and etc) in a binary file using c/c++.  If this is what you want to know, please get in touch because I can provide you with a simple exercise c/c++ program.

 

All the best
