#117976 - hmm
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Hi,

Well, reading the above suggestions. I would also suggest you the same, that is:

You need to do 2 things.

1) Hard code some number (for 2 or 4 bytes) at a specific address in your code.

2) Write a small application using VB or VC++ that overwrites this specific memory location. If you are using VB its really easy to maintain a database of previous serial numbers, date and customer etc etc. You can make use of the utilities mentioned by other like hex2bin and bin2hex.

Its really easy to edit HEX file if you know the exact memory location where to edit.

If you are not conversant with desktop applications, you can ask some one for help. Its hardly 2 hours work for someone who is working on desktop applications (provided you have your specifications ready).

All the best, and please do write back once you finalize on something.

Regards,
Raj Shetgar
