- I have a situation where a REAL64 type value on a Tandem, is being sent
- to me as eight bytes. I receive this data fine, however I don't know how
- I can convert these 8bytes into a double type, value that I can then
- perform maths on, in my Windows C application.
-
- Any advice or help would be apprecciated.
-
- Please e-mail me directly, due to news access problems that I'm having.
