Don't know exactly what you want to do. An image is not designed to store
useable text for use in a text editing program other than the creating
device and date with a little other pertinent information. If you want to
see the code you can open the jpg file in notepad. More to the point since
the code is in hexadecimal you should really use a hex editor program to
open it to see all the "code".

Hi dorjay,

You'll need to process the image using OCR software. Do note, though, that artifacts in the jpeg image may significantly degrade the
accuracy of the OCR output.

Save/Export the .jpeg in Picture Manager to .TIF black and white, then
open it in Microsoft Office Document Imaging and run OCR on it to
extract the text.

You have a JPG image, a screen capture maybe, of some programming code,
is that the problem?

There's no text in an image. It's just a lot of dots arranged to
*look* like text. As macropod mentioned, you'd need Optical Character
Recognition (OCR) software to process the JPG and look for patterns of
dots that resemble text and make its best guess as to what characters
they are.

If that sounds like a recipe for code with errors in it, you've got the
picture. (But we knew that ... what you want is the text, nyuk nyuk).

Unless there are a lot of these images, your best bet is just to type
in the code yourself.
