   Hi, all,   
      
   For an expert witness gig, I've been sent what purport to be some   
   super-secret Code V lens files for optical disc players.   
      
   But the Zemax converter seq2zmx.exe can't read them, and I don't have a   
   copy of Code V.  Running strings on the binary file produces a bit of   
   suggestive output, containing things like BK7, QWP, Decenter#1, and so on.   
      
   Any wisdom as to what program might read a file called BDP_BD_VER00.len?   
      
   Thanks   
      
   Phil Hobbs

   On the Lambda Research site, it says that OLSO can import lens files from   
   CodeV,   
   http://secure.lambdares.com/software_products/oslo/oslo/import_export/   
      
   Perhaps the free Oslo-Edu version will read these files.  Oslo also used   
   .len for its lens files.
