https://community.intel.com/t5/Software-Archive/Attempting-to-read-large-file-error/m-p/952631#M19973 I am having a problem accessing data stored in a large binary file. I am reading REAL*4 values from a file that is approximately 3.2 GB. the program runs fine until I attempt to read a value from record 536,870,913. Is this due to a limitation of INTEGER*4 ? <BR />(ie 2**32-1 = 2,147,483,648 , /4 = 536,870,912 ) <BR /> Is there any way to get around this problem? <BR />-joel Sat, 26 May 2001 05:56:20 GMT Intel_C_Intel 2001-05-26T05:56:20Z https://community.intel.com/t5/Software-Archive/Attempting-to-read-large-file-error/m-p/952631#M19973 I am having a problem accessing data stored in a large binary file.

I think we added the ability to read more than 2GB files in version 6.0A.
