Am I able to point to a file on my local hard drive in windows and set a field with the base 64 string of the file pointed to? Unable to find this in scriptmaster.

Thanks Stu

Yes, there is a base64 encoding module included with scriptmaster. Go to the modules list and perform a find for "Base64" to see the related modules if you're having trouble finding it in the list. If you have delete the module from your scriptmaster file you can download a fresh copy from http://360works.com/scriptmaster/

I cant find what you are referring to. The only thing available in scriptmaster is Base 64 encode. This requires a text string as input but does not let me point to a file either binary or text on my drive for encoding

Are you trying to encode the CONTENTS of the file or the PATH to the file???

The contents of the file

Thank you Stuj1026

Then you need to add the ReadFileContents output into the Base64Encode as an input, or combine the two functions...

Not sure how it will get on with binary contents though.

Thanks for the quick reply.... will give it a try

thanks

ReadFileContents output into the Base64Encode as an input, or combine the two functions.....

Looks like the ReadFileContents cannot read the binary file..... nuts!! anyone have any other suggestions?

..

try to Google this: "java encode binary file as base64"

second post tells you how you can do it.
