Can I store data in MacOS, copy the .dat file in Windows, open it (using the
Windows .vdb file) and continue to store data in this platform, copy again
the .dat file on MacOS, open it (with he MacOS.vdb file) and read all these
data on MacOS ? Is it allowed ?
Are you able to interpret correctly the data ?

Ok. If you say this must work, I will find time in order to test this.
