HELP,
     I just got some data that had been written in VAX Fortran binary format.
I can read the tape into a file, but the conversion in to SGI style floats and
integers is not done.  Does any one out there have some PD code or a code 
segment of code that will do this?  I have the part of the Fortran program that 

does the reads and I will be converting it to C.  Any help, including what the
VAX Fortran binary format is would be greatly appreciated.

                                       Thanks,
                                             Dave
