I have Uploaded 2 text files.

One file(F1.txt) is a small file is size hardly 34 kb and another(F2) of size 700 kb.

I can read F1 clearly and properly but F2 returns me some garbage values.

Like :

˙ţ1

Any Suggestions ?

Code Using :
***********************

Set objFSO = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
strURL = Server.MapPath(".") & "/lds/abs.txt"
Set objFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile(strURL)

What might be it is that since the second txt file is 700 Kb, it was probably too big to have
been created in Notepad (Ascii), therefor it will probably be created in something like Wordpad (Unicode), so possibly your code is expecting an Ascii file (like F1.txt) but instead gets an Unicode file (F2.txt) which would then cause troubles.

Yes, like ILLHILL said it's probably not plain text. A 700kb plain text file would be unusually large.
