Error in File write of dat file

Nov 5th, 2008
Consider d_type=POINT_LONG in the following program.
and data.Long=0xA;

In the following program i am getting correct output in constDataArea[0],constDataArea[1],constDataArea[2], constDataArea[3]
which is oxA, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0.

But not able to write the same into ambi.dat file. Some junk value is inserting in the front.
and writing 5 bytes instead of 4 bytes.
Output file(ambi.dat)is as follows
-----------------
0D 0A 00 00 00
-----------------

Expected output in dat file is
---------------
0A 00 00 00
--------------
What is the error in this code. plz give me suggestion

Its so simple, we have to write "wb" in fwrite instead of "w" , while writing binary file.
c Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
  1. FILE *f1;
  2. f1=fopen("c:\\ambi.dat", "wb");
  3. fwrite(constDataArea, 1,4, f1); 	
  4. fclose(f1);


I did changes as above and i got output..
