Hi Manodeep,

Thanks for your reply.
It turns out that a Python script can read the file correctly:

import numpy as np

MyStruct = [ # define
MyStruct
('a' ,
np.int32),
('b' ,
np.int64),
('c' , np.int32),
('d' , np.float32)
]

f1 = open(filename, 'rb') # Open the file
S1 = np.fromfile(f1, MyStruct) # read MyStruct

However, I have to use IDL (and I do not really know much about
Python...)

Do you have any idea why Python can handle it and not IDL?

cheers
