Hi rajanbabu,

to import such kind of files it is necessary to have a corresponding DataPlugin. Creating a DataPlugin you need the format description of these files. On the DataPlugin web page you find detailed information about DataPlugins and how to create them. There is also a possibility to ask whether this kind of file is already in developement.

Greetings

Hi rajanbabu,

Just stating that your data file has real numbers in it is not enough information.  Are they 64 bit or 32 bit reals?  Are they in Big Endian or Little Endian byte order?  Is there data from only 1 channel or from multiple channels in that file?  Is there header information stored at the top of the file, or does the data start at byte 0?  Is the data from multiple channels stored interleaved or end-to-end, etc.

If you have a particularly simple data file, I would be happy to help you with the DataPlugin.  If the file is complex, you should go the www.ni.com/dataplugins route.
