#180758 - Common false assumption!
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Per Westermark said:
You have made the assumption that the hex file is a 1-to-1 representation of the bytes in the flash.

A very common false assumption!

eg, http://www.keil.com/support/docs/3250.htm

But if you look at the hex file (you can open it in a text editor), you'll notice that it is a text file.

Full details of the Intel Hex file format can be found here (among others): http://www.keil.com/support/docs/1584.htm
