Saving array in binary file without any header information or timestamp information

Hi,
I need to save an array I have imported to matlab into a binary file. I don't have a binary file so first I need to know how to create one (8 bit)? In the past when I save into the binary format from matlab header information is included something like 'Matlab timestamp' ect. How can I remove this from the binary file? Also How can I make sure no timestamp information is included?
Thanks.

Why? What does it hurt? It doesn't show up in the image when you recall it. Even if you have a completely raw, no header file, the operating system still has information on it, like the name of it, when it was created and last accessed, its security permissions, etc. Those should not be a problem (you can't avoid them even if they were) but I don't see why image header information is a problem.
WRF WPS requires there be no header information.

fid = fopen('TheFileName', 'w');
No header of any kind will be included.

Thanks, how do I create the binary file in the first place?
Can I do this by right clicking and saving as a binary file as well?
