Labview's Read from I16 file vi does not return array size

[ss2593]

I have a collection of data from one or two channels that I saved using the Write to I16 file vi. Now I need to open this data for further processing, but do not have the information as to how many channels were saved. Any attempts I used to read the array size are only successful if I tell the read vi how many columuns. Is there any way to discern how many columns (channels) of data have been stored?

There is no information how the data was written in the file. You have to read in the file twice, with one column and with two columns, displaying the data in two graphs and then decide by the knowledge how the data must lock which is the right one.

You have posted this question twice. Here is also an answer.
