    Reading binary file


    I have a VB application that writes binary files out to a file server. Now,
    I need my Java application to read and parse those files. Is this even possible?
    Can I use the java.io library to read a binary file that was written using
    VB?

    Thanks...

    Yes, you can. (Of course, what "binary" means will determine how difficult
    it is.)
