And you're writing this project in VB6? Because this group is only for VB6
and earlier versions.

Am new to this area, still am not thinking about language for
implementing, now am in the stage of searching, any content based
algorithm available for text, numeric and special characters...

Setup yourself some NewsReader-Software,
connect to some free News-Server as for
example news.aioe.org - and then subscribe
to the NewsGroup:
comp.compression
Ask your question there...

Then come back here to:
microsoft.public.vb.general.discussion
or
comp.lang.basic.visual.misc

.... in case your implementation-
language of choice should be VB5/6. ;-)

There are many hundreds of compression schemes out there.
Have you tried doing your own research for YOUR projects?

Like others said, this group is for VB6 and earlier(VB Classic). VB.Nxt and
all dotnet groups have either "dotnet" or "vsnet" in the group name. if you
are using VB.Nxt, then please use the following group instead:
