I understand HEX, but I don't understand the point you are trying to make. Yes, the character that follows the CRD is hexadecimal notation. Is that the point you were trying to make?

Carl,
I chose the ver 9 to save as....so I thought at least.
I just tried it again, maybe it will work for others now.

That's one of the reasons why I created a macro to do that for me. It's real easy to forget to check the box when doing a Save As. Or, if you save it once as version 9, the next time you save it will default to the current version. Version 12, however, does warn you before it saves it.

That was an assumption he made that I didn't understand. I don't think that they'll stick to a true hexadecimal number to represent the version number in the CDR file based only on the assumption that it appear to be a one byte field. If it were truly a hexadecimal numbering scheme, it wouldn't display as an ASCII representation of that value (ie an "A" would actually have a hexadecimal value of 65, decimal, not "10", decimal, as Harvey suggested).
Going to "10h" (2-digits) for sixteen would require two bytes. I doubt they will change (assuming it is currently a single byte field) the file format to accommodate a hexadecimal (2 digit) number scheme. After all, a "G" (ie for version 16) or sequential ASCII decimal number is just as easy to deal with in a programming environment.

Only way to know is to wait a few years.
Lots of programs put out the ASCII letters for the hex number. Look at the registration numbers on the programs, lots of ASCII hex there.
At least the old HPGL put out full float decimal values, a horrid waste of space and computing power though.

Thank you for sharing.... I think I will do the same and send them in to my son's kindergarten glass.
Thanks for sharing!!!
