Assistance with binary file

[zilore mumba]

Thanks Mary and Mahakur for taking your time to read my code. Your suggestions were very useful. However the major problem was an error in one loop in the fortran code ( not included in the extract I sent). Now the filed is displaying as required.
Thanks to all others who looked at my problem.

Hello,

Try with the following in your ctl:

vars 1
PMSL  0 99  ** Pressure reduced to MSL [Pa]
ENDVARS

instead of:

vars 1
PMSL  0 2,102,0  ** Pressure reduced to MSL [Pa]
ENDVARS

Regards,

Mahakur
