That's bug 5887: http://www.paraview.org/Bug/view.php?id=5887

Do you have a particular reason to need this functionality?  This bug has never 
been high priority because there does not seem to be any real need for it.  
That file is the only example I have ever run into of a legacy VTK file with no 
DATASET type specified.

I cannot get the legacy financial.vtk (in the vtk data files) to read
into Paraview.

The file has six FIELD values and no DATASET type specified:

# vtk DataFile Version 2.0
Financial data in vtk field format
ASCII

FIELD financialData 6
TIME_LATE 1 3188 float
....


How does one read in FIELD data from legacy VTK files?

Thanks,

Steve
