[gradsusr] opening text file data

[Muhammad Rahiz]

Galebonwe,

I'm using GrADS on linux and as far as I know, if your text file is in the same directory as your script, you don't have to put in the full path.
I'm not sure if it's different on Windows although I doubt so. I presume 
you've checked your code?
