Maybe your debugger is f*cked up !  |
If you need those 2 files for running VC 8.0 files just say and I'll give them to you, Olly seems fine because it opens VC 6.0, just like yours did. But it couldn't find the strings with the 8.0 file. But the person below answers that.

Thank you for the information. Is there a way of being able to kind of "search" for this as a string though, some kind of Olly trick, that even though it is split up, Olly will know that the split buffers are actually related to each other to make up a string? Like a way of viewing it as a string even though it isn't as a string.
I can find most of the strings by tracing into the program stopping the trace and then viewing all the referenced strings. But I think it would be good if I knew a way of finding strings like the one in this program as it may be useful sometime.
Thanks.
