Hi,
I get garbage when I read in a array of strings that I had written using the following code

openw, lun, 'test.dat', /get_lun

afilename=bytarr(256,N)

read in N afilenames...

afilenames_temp=string(afilename(0:255,N) )

writeu, lun,afilenames_temp(0:N-1)
close,lun
* Here If I give pring afilenames_temp(0:10) I get first 11 file complete names
Looks like afilenames_temp has all the info that I needed to store in it and I should have written it into the binary file...

However when I read test.dat with the following code I get garbage.

openr, lun, 'test.dat', /get_lun
afile = string(lengths+1)
readu, lun,afile

Can anybody help...
GlanPlon !!
