Decoding Decimal64 data

Question

I'm looking for a simple way to decode data stored in the Decimal64 format (described here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal64_floating-point_format) using C#.

Any thoughts?

Answer 1

Read a bit too fast there.

I think you'd want to have a look at the BitConverter.ToSingle method in C# but reverse the order of the bytes to get a correct result. :)
