READVAR FileName Start Length Variable Reads part of a file into a variable > ReadVar ram:myfile 0 100 myvar will read the first 100 bytes of file "ram:myfile" into variable "myvar". Remember that variable length is limited to 1024 bytes unless you enlarge it with the SET BUFFERS command (also a ToolType option). That means that you can not read more than that into the variable.
