Want to translate IEEE754 format to ASCII

[NicoChamps]

Could you help me to translate a file wrote in IEEE754 format to ASCII
Thank you

LabVIEW stores floating point numbers in IEEE 754 format. Under the File I/O>Binary File VIs there is Read From SGL File.vi that should work if they were stored with 32-bit IEEE single-precision format. if they were stored with 64-bit precision, you can modify the VI by changing all of the data types from SGL to DBL. If you need the numbers outputed to a text file, you could take the VI's output and wire it to the Write To Spreadsheet File function.

The following webpage contains an example that converts a SGL to IEEE 754 binary format (and vice versa). You could modify this example to read your data and convert it to decimal format.
