I like to be able to modify the content of "pBuf" without modifying the content of the file. what would be the options, if that would be possible at all?.
pBuf = (LPTSTR) MapViewOfFile(hMapFile, // handle to map object
FILE_MAP_ALL_ACCESS, // read/write permission
highDWordVal,
lowDWordVal,
BUF_SIZE1); //BUF_SIZE);
