First, you can't enter every byte value from the command line. Try

CTRL-Z.
And there are lots of other things you can't enter from the command

line.

Sure I can. I just can't use the built-in "copy con" command.


If you can't do it with COPY CON the how would you propose to do it? Keep in
mind that you have to do it from the command line; "notepad.exe" doesn't
count.



Second, you could not realistically determine the byte values to use

without
first creating the Word document, then reverse engineering it.


How do you know? Are you claiming it's impossible for any person to know
the Word document file format?


That's why you should read all of the words in the sentence:
"realistiically". I suppose it is possible for someone to memorize the Word
file format, but I doubt if anyone with a life would bother. Just cosider
the byte values associated with a single character: font, size, color, bold,
underline, italic, et al. And then you may have to change the attributes
after that character.



Your claims are getting dumber and dumber.


I'm not making any claims, I am simply stating facts.



Again, another bad example.


I can see that you *really* have a need to find fault where none exists.

I
apologize for not being an appropriate target for you to satisfy your

need.

I don't have a need for anything. I did go back and review some of your
previous posts and realized that you are a person who obviously knows
everything there is to know. I hope your delusions carry you a long way; if
not, let me know, and I can tell you where to buy a clue.

This is so far off topic that I wish I had not become involved; my only
intent was to point out a glaringly stupid statement in the first post of
yours I saw on this thread. So I'm out of this one until it comes back to
flying...
