Dear users!

I used the following command in Matlab 6.5 to open a file in Vax-D format:
  FID = fopen(FileName, Permission, 'd')

This fails in Matlab R2008b, because the list of known machineformats has been reduced.

1. When did this happen?
2. I've tried a lot of searching on www.mathworks.com without success - what a the right terms for searching?
3. How do I read the files written in VAXD format?

Thanks, Jan
