Hi bharat,

The general method of getting information from a TDMS file is 1) Open file using the file path, 2) Perform read operations as required, 3) Close file.  The tools for this can be found on the File I/O - TDM Streaming palette.

For example, here is how to read the contents of a TDMS file:

And here is how to read waveform data from a group:

You can also use the TDMS File Viewer from the TDM Streaming palette to look at the contents of a TDMS file.  If you look at the LabVIEW help for these tools you will find more useful information about how to use them.
