IDL/PV-Wave - Can they strip headers in binary files? [message #1247]

Could someone tell me how IDL or PV-Wave copes with dislaying data from a
binary file which has a a header of various types (ie int,float,string) and
which also defines the number of records in the file.
Would the header have to be stripped first by another program?
I am specifically interested in how easy it is to read from a file of
this type and ouput the data in a graphical format(ie plot etc).
Are any of the two products more suited to this task?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
