Saves the ByteArray data as a file.
ByteArray.SaveAs (FileName as String, [StartPosition as Variant = 1], [Length as Long = All data])
Where | Type | Optional | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
FileName | String | File to save data. | ||
StartPosition | Variant | yes | 1 | Start file position to save SaveAs contents, based to 1. 0 means 'End of file', Empty or undefined means 'overwrite file'. |
Length | Long | yes | All data | Number of bytes to write to the file. (1B - 2GB-1) |
Maximum ByteArray length is 2GB, but StartPosition can be 64 bit number (currency or decimal data type), so you can also save data to a file with unlimitted size.

ByteArray - save unicode data (string) as utf-8 with BOM |

ByteArray - accept very large data in POST/PUT request, ASP, VBScript |
You can use Post binary data to URL from WSH/ASP/VBA/VBS and Work with binary files in VBS - read and write local and remote files articles to read and send a binary file from a client-side.

Works with safearray binary data - save/restore binary data from/to a disk, convert to a string/hexstring, codepage/charset conversions, Base64 conversion, etc.
ByteArray is a COM class specially designed to work with Microsoft Windows Scripting engines - VB Script and JScript in Active Server Pages or WSH and in CHM or HTA applications. It also works with VB Net, Visual basic (VBA - VB 5, VB 6, Word, Excel, Access, …), C#, J#, C++, ASP, ASP.Net, Delphi and with T-SQL OLE functions - see Use ByteArray object article. You can also use the object in other programming environments with COM support, such is PowerBuilder.
Source code for ByteArray is available within distribution license, please see License page for ASP file upload and ScriptUtilities.
Huge ASP upload is easy to use, hi-performance ASP file upload component with progress bar indicator. This component lets you upload multiple files with size up to 4GB to a disk or a database along with another form fields. Huge ASP file upload is a most featured upload component on a market with competitive price and a great performance . The software has also a free version of asp upload with progress, called Pure asp upload , written in plain VBS, without components (so you do not need to install anything on server). This installation package contains also ScriptUtilities library. Script Utilities lets you create hi-performance log files , works with binary data , you can download multiple files with zip/arj compression, work with INI files and much more with the ASP utility.
