I have some data that includes floating point numbers stored in
"Microsoft Binary Format".

Does anyone have a byte-order and bit pattern description for
MSBF?

Of course if there is any free source code that converts from MSBF to
native format for Linux/Intel I'd gratefully accept, otherwise a written
description will suffice.

thanks, Mike
