Yes, if you can load the contents on a ByteArray you can use the method:<br><br>array floatAt: position<br><br>It works just fine to read contents written from a C program, and I think it is a bit simpler.<br><br>Cheers.<br>

Thanks. The following methods work, can they be improved/simplified?<br>
<br>
double<br>
 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&quot; returns a double &quot;<br>
 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;| n a b |<br>
 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;a := self uint32.<br>
 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;b := self uint32.<br>
 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;n := Float new: 2.<br>
 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;n at: 1 put: b.<br>
 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;n at: 2 put: a.<br>
 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;^n<br>
float<br>
 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&quot; returns a float &quot;<br>
 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;^Float fromIEEE32Bit: self uint32.<br>
<br>
uint32<br>
 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&quot; Answer the next unsigned, 32-bit integer from this little endian<br>
(binary) stream &quot;<br>
 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;^ aFileStream nextLittleEndianNumber: 4<br>
