q:type cast

[hans 264]

Hello

Yesterday I looked for a VI that creates a header for a binary
logging-file. I found one in the Labview-example-list, but it uses the
option "Convert 4.x Data" at the symbol for Type Casting. What does that
mean?

The data storage of binary data is changed between labview 4.x and labview 5.x. To make it possible to read the old data this conversion was an option.
If you don't have "old" binary data, you may uncheck this option by right clicking on the function and uncheck this "feature"
