<font size="2">Hi,
<br />
<br />if your data was created on a big_endian plataform, put the following line in your .ctl file:
<br />
<br />OPTIONS big_endian
<br />
<br />You can put it, for example, after the DSET line.
<br />
<br />It should fix your problem.
<br />
<br />Regards,
<br />Ricardo

Hi,
<br />> i'm using the latest version of openGrads for Windows which uses
little Endian readline. But my ctl files are built on big Endian.
<br />>
so every time i order grads to open my ctl it says ''cannot enter descriptor
file''. I think i have to download an older version of grads <span style="font-family: 'Courier New'; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;">1.9b4,
but i think it works in linux enviroment which i cannot handle. Is there a way
to convert big endian to little or any other solution?</span>

lot!</span>
