Hi,
I'm having trouble importing a .bin file on an FTP server. Below is the code. Any thoughts on why fopen is returning -1??
FULLurl = 'ftp://disc2.nascom.nasa.gov/data/TRMM/Gridded/Derived_Products/3B42RT/Daily/2001/3B42RT_daily.2001.03.01.bin';
fid = fopen(FULLurl, 'r');
a = fread(fid, 'float','b');
fclose(fid);

That would because fopen is only for accessing the filesystem. It does not work over ftp (or http for that matter).

Attach the file, and attach your m-file script that demonstrates the problem.

a = fread(fid, Inf, 'float', 0, 'b');
