To open an unknows binary file

[alex.]

I have a binary file generate by Labview, but not know the format and want to find out, is there any way, thanks.

Well TurboT,

you should like inside the vi's used for writing the file!

If this isn't possible it will be a hard task. You can try to guess the structure of your file. The more you know about the content of the file the easier it may be to find the file structure...

Easiest would be to look at the LabVIEW program that generated the binary file. Do you have access to the diagram?

If you only have the binary file, you need more information on the data structure. Could be anything. If the structure is simple (e.g. a 1D array of big endian I32 and nothing else) you might be able to read it after a few tries.
