Couple of things:

1) This is not a good question - we cannot work out from that little what you are trying to do.
Remember that we can't see your screen, access your HDD, or read your mind.
Use the "Improve question" widget to edit your question and provide better information.

2) It may be urgent to you, but it isn't to us. All that your stressing the urgency does is to make us think you have left it too late, and want us to do it for you. This annoys some people, and can slow a response.

It is not difficult. For instance with the 'quick and dirty' approach the content of a binary file (assumed to contain 32 bit integers) is reported in decimal representation on the standard output.

C++

nclude <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <stdint.h>
using namespace std;


union MU
{
  char buf[4];
  uint32_t u32;
};

int main( int argc, char * argv[])
{

  MU mu;

  if ( argc < 2) return -1;

  ifstream ifs(argv[1], ios::binary);

  while (ifs.good())
  {
    if ( ifs.read(mu.buf, sizeof(mu)).good())
    {
      cout << mu.u32 << endl;
    }
  }
}
