Sorry - I meant to say NetCDF 2.3.2 dates from the 90's.

Works like a dream! nccopy was the answer. NetCDF dates from the 90's - it never occured to me that the Agilent code would be that far out of date. Thanks again - for solving a problem that wasn't even yours. David

Thanks Martijn! I'll follow that route. NetCDF files are not friendly to deal with - I was hoping that hdf5 (through the excellent 5hlabview :-) ) would make the job less painful. But I will soldier on. I'll try the nccopy idea first. Kind regards, David

Hi Martijn, Thank you for your response, NetCDF files are meant to be valid hdf5 files (http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/docs/interoperability_hdf5.html). This particular file was created by Agilent's Open Lab CDS software and it is possible that they are not formatting/constructing the file correctly. Certainly I cannot find the hdf5 dll's on that computer - so they are possibly using their own code for this. As you noticed, many of the datasets in the example file are blank - but that...

Hi Martijn (and all), I'm trying to read data from netCDF files - these are hdf5 files of a specific style. I have found that I can open these and view the file contents using the HDFView (2.13) software but I cannot get them to open using 5hlabview. If I try to open the file (using H5FOpen.vi) - I get the following error: 60020 H5Equery.vi<ERR> Error in H5Fopen: unable to open file - H5F_open: unable to read superblock - H5F_super_read: file signature not found. Complete call chain: H5Equery.vi...

D'oh - I've seen this was opened as a ticket back in 2014 but it looks like it hasn't...

Hi All, I think I've found an error in the conversion of files to mz5 format using...

Hi Martin, My impression is that the authors of the file format did not fully understand...
