ReadBinaryBuffer

Reads file in binary mode as blocks
Starts reading from start in sequential mode, but with control over how many bytes every line has will enable you to reach certain point of file needed.
One of my attempts to read large files

Original Work
Function ReadBinaryBuffer(Filename, Optional LineBuffer = 6000, Optional FromLine = 10)
    ' Reads certain position of file
    Dim OneChunk as string
    iFile                        = FreeFile()
    Open Filename For Binary Access Read As #iFile
    If LineBuffer = 0 Then LineBuffer = LOF(iFile)
    OneChunk                    = String(LineBuffer, " ")
    Rett                        = ""
    Do Until Eof(iFile)
        LineX1                = LineX1 + 1
        Get #iFile,,OneChunk
        If LineX1 >= FromLine Then
            Rett                = OneChunk
            Exit do
        End If
        Doevents
    Loop
    Close #iFile
    ReadBinaryBuffer        = Rett
End Function
