File Binary Encoding

[beefinit]

Hi,

I have been trying to open an arbitrary file type, such as a jpeg or bitmap file, convert this to its binary representation and then later decode this information into its original form. I would then like to open the file with labVIEW. Let me describe minimally, what my program consists of now. As of now, I am opening the file and reading it in labview. I was then sending it to a "type cast" and trying to encode it with type: %b for binary. After this, I was taking the string and converting it to a byte array. I have saved this byte array to an I16 file to see if the output was binary, however, it appears to be in ACSII format. I would ultimately like to send this binary file information to a DAQ assistant, where it will be transmitted via AM radio signal. The last analog circuit design I have under control, however, the labVIEW program I have found to be nearly impossible to create! Can any please help?

Sincerely

Trevor

ASCII is ones and zeros, too. Perhaps the attached VI is helpful.
