[gradsusr] grads error while using arwpost .ctl files

[SMITH, JONATHAN WYNN. (GSFC-6140)[Science Collaborator]]

Hello:

I have attached a grads script that plots WRF-Chem output of carbon monoxide (co) on the 850 hPa level co_850hPa_sequence.gs for a sequence of times.  When the ctl_plevs.ctl (attached) is open, the grads plots the data correctly.  However, when bb_plevs.ctl (attached) is open, the script does not plot the data.  I do not think the actual WRF-Chem netcdf output is corrupt because I am able to look at it with ncview.  This output appears to be fine.  The problem I have described above happens with grads 2.0.a8 and 2.0.1. Moreover, this error happens with bb_plevs.ctl created by ARWpost v2.2 and v3, even after recompiling them a couple of times.

What could be happening? How can I resolve it?
