I'm having problems writing heterogenous data to an HDF vdata
<BR>using IDL's hdf_vd_write. Specifically, I want to write a structure,
<BR>which has fields of different types and orders and which represents
<BR>one vdata record, to my HDF file. I'l l need to do this repeatedly.
<P><I>IDL Scientific Data Formats </I>says I cannot write IDL structures
<BR>directly to a vdata, I must put the data into a byte array first.
I have
<BR>no experience converting floating point arrays into their respective
<BR>byte representations.
<P>I would greatly appreciate any help on these matters.
<BR>
<P>TIA,
<P>Charles Cavanaugh
