    <p><code>BinaryWriter</code> is used for writing a NON-human-readable format hence, <em>binary</em>. Example, if you want to write primitive types, <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.binarywriter.aspx#remarksToggle" rel="nofollow">you can just write them in their byte representation (like boolean)</a></p> <p>So for writing/reading a human-readable file, you can just use a <code>StreamReader</code>/<code>StreamWriter</code>. It would be <strong>much easier</strong>.</p> <h2>Using StreamReader</h2> <p>The snippet below works as per your specification, but it's just a guide if you want to improve its algorithm or whatsoever. I also strongly suggest that you just use a <code>StreamWriter</code>. But the code below uses <code>BinaryWriter</code>.</p> <pre><code>namespace _16953330 { class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { string input = @"The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.

    1. COYou probably want to change the `firstPart` and `secondPart` `WriteLine`s to something like `Console.WriteLine(System.Text.Encoding.Default.GetString(firstPart));` so that they don't simply say `System.Byte[]` in the console, and I'd add a `Console.ReadLine();` to help out our OP, but other than writing `BinaryWritter` [sic] over and over ;^), this *is* one right answer.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
