Topic: Problem with opening Bruker Files
Hi Martin,
I am trying to open my Bruker FTICRMS file using your program. I have version 5.4.1 of the mMass software. I am using a Windows 7 computer. I have so far been unable to open either the analysis.baf file or the fid file. I think the problem is with the Compass Xport software, as when I try and convert the files using it, I keep getting an error (ID 120). I am not sure if I am entering the file correctly either which could be the cause. I copied/pasted both the fid and analysis.baf files into the CompassXport folder. I type the following into command: CompassXport -a analysis.baf or CompassXport -a fid. They both get that same error. I also tried entering: CompassXport -a E:/foldername/analysis.baf entering the location of the files original location.
When I try to directly open the files in mMass, the fid file does nto work at all and comes back saying it cannot open the file. The analysis.baf file does seem to convert the file to the mzML and mzXML file formats but then spends a long time trying to open the file and eventually the software has an error and closes.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions.
Thanks
Gina
