Binary file storage
It doest tell how a binary file is stored. I am curious about how Labview stores a binary file so that I can access that in Matlab or someother software to read the values.
- Apr 17, 2005

I am write a program with Labview to acquire data.When I saved datas to disk in binary by the command of Write File+ [I16].vi ,I found that each data saved in the form that the high level byte (8-bit)were saved in low address and the low level byte (8-bit) in high address.But I I hope the data can be read by Matlab, So I hope that the datas will be saved in the form that the high level byte saved in high address and the low level byte in low address.How will I do to achieve these?
