Is there any way to reform an array so that its type changes? I want
to read a file format which contains a mixture of 2 and 4-byte
integers. Rather than pre-build complicated structures to read it, it
would be nice to read the whole thing as 2-byte values, cut it up as
necessary, and then 'reform' the necessary blocks into 4-byte integers
with no processing cost.

Essentially a way to convert an INT = Array[100] into a LONG =
Array[50] ?
