extra bytes when write to binary file

[Ed.Wong]

I get 4 extra bytes when i try to write to binary file in LV 8.2. How can i not include those 4 bytes in the file.

Thanks

There's a flag on the Vi that can be set to prevent the length of array or string to be prepended to the data.

I can't look at your code because I don't have LabVIEW here, but both the flatten to string and the write to binary file functions have a "prepend array size" boolean input. As the name says it will add the array size (I32 I guess) to the string. If you deselect that, the size should be correct.

EDIT: hmm, André was quicker...
