Hi George, Do you mean to say that I have to save these files as .hdf while downloading?
If yes, do I need to put '.hdf' at the end of the file name? for your information this is a zipped file. If not, do I need to change the name of the file just adding '.hdf' at the end of the file name Please suggest and even first option is not opening file but showing same error.
