Trick to Create a File of Any Size!!!!

You can create a file of any size using nothing more than what's supplied with Windows.

1]Start by converting the desired file size into hexadecimal notation.[You can use the Windows Calculator in Scientific mode do to this]

2]Suppose you want a file of 1 million bytes. Enter 1000000 in the calculator and click on the Hex option to convert it (1 million in hex is F4240).

3]Pad the result with zeroes at the left until the file size reaches eight digits—000F4240.

4]Now open a command prompt window.[type cmd in run]

5]Enter the command DEBUG BIGFILE.DAT and ignore the File not found message.

6]Type RCX and press Enter. Debug will display a colon prompt.

7]Enter the last four digits of the hexadecimal number you calculated (4240, in our example).

8]Type RBX and press Enter, then enter the first four digits of the hexadecimal size (000F, in our example).

9]Enter W for Write and Q for Quit.

You've just created a 1-million-byte file using Debug. Of course you can create a file of any desired size using the same technique.
