    Hi Glen, Anthony.
    I'm currently looking at streams to solve this problem, probably the main
    issue is that I don't come from an OO background.
    Anyway the problem I have is this:
    I have a large string (say 100000 bytes) passed into my routine. I need to
    read this entire string in blocks of 32000 bytes as these will be passed to
    another routine for further processing.
    Now with my limited Java experience my thinking was to use String.substring
    to chop out the necessary sections of data but of course you can't specify a
    starting position greater than the size of an integer so I'm looking at
    streams and readers now but I don't know any techniques for doing what I
    need.

    So what I need is some way of streaming in 32000 bytes of the string to
    another array or string and repeat until the end of the string is reached.

    Many thanks

    Dave
