Introduction

If your application requires editing data in hex format, then you just need to have this kind of a control. Softerra Hex Editor is implemented as a 32-bit ActiveX (OCX) control, which will seamlessly integrate a hex editor in your applications. This control will save you hours spent on tweaking your user interfaces.

Here are the major Softerra Hex Editor features:

  • Ability to work in two modes: insert mode and overwrite mode
  • Working with clipboard
  • Changing the number of data-containing columns
  • Data-containing column number auto-detection based on control window size
  • Ability not to display address
  • Display address as WORD or DWORD
  • Display data as BYTE, WORD or DWORD
  • Ability not to display ASCII
  • Changing text and background colors
  • Changing font height
  • Ability to get information about whether or not the data has been modified.

More detailed information, you can read here.
