What? You tell us you have a 'binary file' that you need to convert  
into 'plain ASCII' and then don't tell us the basic information we  
need and complain that the data you're getting means nothing to you...

If you'd said in the first place 'I have an Adobe Shared Asset  
Catalog (.sac) format file that I'd like to process by getting [data  
x] out of it' then maybe somebody might have been able to help you.

We're really cool guys, but we're not able to read minds (yet).
