Dear Roger, Peter, Elena Thanks for your suggestions but unsuccessful. I am not sure which format the file is carrying whether HDF4 or HDF5. I downloaded H5check which I didnot understand its head and tail as i am not from programming background. As peter suggested, I tried to change the file types from Tools => User options that also didnt work. as a second suggestion to check sample data provided in samples folder from HDFview install location, open dialog shows list of hdf files but when tried to open them pops up an error message "failed to open file - unsupported file format" According to Elena's suggestion, Images are not downloded from http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov/data/dataprod/dataproducts.php? but downloaded from http://neo.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/search.html. Here in HDFView main window I saw "4" and "5" both the icons are disabled where even submenus in File => New => HDF4 and HDF5 are disabled. Kindly advise me, is there any problem in the application or in files?
