Now if i convert hex to ASCII and then back to HEX will the data be same. youll say yes.I know.this holds good if the data is char or string my question is what if double,int,float are converted to hex format and then converted to ASCII format and then back to hex format. will the data be same.HELP

Users here are more familiar with using VISA and incorrect statements are just confusing. And you are wrong about reading as ASCII. The data read is strings - a byte at a time and it is just the default front panel display that is ASCII. You can display the data in any format you want (simply right click and select hex diplay for example) and assuming you actually know what format those bytes you read are supposed to represent. Use the functions you have already been given (i.e. unflatten from string) to do the conversion. You can read x number of bytes, use the String to byte array, and use Array Subset to get segments you want for different conversions.
