Is there an easy way to see a hex-and-ascii dump of file?
I can write a VBA macro to read and format the data myself.
But it would be so much easier (of course) if there already exists a (DOS?)
command to do this, like an option to TYPE or MORE. (None that I see with
HELP.)
I am somewhat adept at using VBA in Excel. Is there a feature of that VBA
that I can exploit, short of rolling my own?
I am using Win XP SP3.
PS: I discovered that I can use the DOS command DEBUG, viz.: `debug myfile
does not work for large files (5.2 Mbytes). I get an "insufficient memory"
error.
(I do not really want to format the entire large file content in hex/ascii.
The ideal command/application would permit me to format subsets on-screen,
then format a selected range into a file, something like the DEBUG d
command. But I would settle for formatting the entire file, then writing a
VBA macro to parse the result and output only the desired range of data.)
