Clearing BYTE buffer

[brixton]

How do I clear the contents of a BYTE buffer?  Like with registers, I can just xor register, register

Apologies for such a simple question,

Looks great, thanks, perfect, amazing, yeah!

Is there any other way of doing it though, except a small loop moving 0 to each BYTE PTR?

Actually I suppose I'm just being greedy now  :lol

Yes ,there is a third way, you separating the whole array on dwords and using DWORD PTR ,it's mutch more faster than a BYTE PTR loop.

brixton,

Usual trick is unless you need to zero fill the entire string, just write a zero to the first location and its a zero length string that you can write to.

Thanks for all the replies, and yes hutch--, I did that and it suits my needs for this particular project.  Thanks!  :bg :U
