[FieldTrip] Problems with Neuromag Data after SSS

Hi Lauren,

Thanks for your reply. Yes I had it with 6 data sets where SSS was  
applied. I had them copied from the HP workstation to our server and  
from there to my Mac. Could it be a little and big endian thing  
provoked by moving the files from different platforms?
