The Xceed Binary Encoding control includes only a single property that you may need to set before you use any of the library's methods. The property is named EncodingFormat. By default, the property has been assigned the XceedUUEncodingFormat object to it, so that the library is ready to perform UUEncode/Decode processing. If you need to use another encoding/decoding format, then you will create an instance of an Encoding Format object and assign it to the property. Each Encoding Format object has its own properties that you can set to determine how the library should handle encoding or decoding of that particular object's format.
