I hope someone can help, Is there a function to convert an 8 byte value read from a file into a real number ? I have tried using the built-in functions, but get meaningless answers. I need to convert for example 00 00 00 00 00 20 5c 40 into the value 112.5 Any help would be welcome. Thanks. Ben Duffy.
