Bytes only handles values from 0 to 255, so you'll need to use words or integers if the numeric range is beyond that.

oh yea thanks. Now I feel stupid. Now what is best for file size / memory usage? I see that 'write file' also works. Is that too intensive though? or is there no difference? Thanks for the help.
