<DIV>Hi Arlindo,</DIV>
<DIV>I checked out the download site for Strawberry Perl, but it only has a full installation option. I can't get to just a subset of the code. When you have a chance, can you send the perl510.dll? I'll give it a try then. </DIV>
<DIV>--<BR>Thanks, <BR>Mark</DIV>

<DIV>Hi Arlindo,</DIV>
<DIV>I installed the new perl and exe code in the win32 directory. Also downloaded the gfs file you reccomended (saved as gfs.12z). Fired up the cmd prompt, set my path as usual and then tried to execute:</DIV>
<DIV> g2gdf.exe -verf gfs.t12z.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Dialogue box pops up indicating the following Windows error:</DIV>
<DIV>G2gdf.exe - Unable to Locate Component</DIV>
<DIV>This application has failed to start because perl510.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.</DIV>

<DIV><BR>I don't have access to WIndows during the day; I can make this DLL available to you tonight, or else install Strawberry Perl from the link I sent before.<BR> </DIV>

<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>So then I tried running the perl version. Here's the result:</DIV>
<DIV>>g2gdf.pl -verf gfs.12z<BR>cannot find any GRIB-2 file at c:\Program Files\PCGrADS19\win32\g2gdf.pl line 124.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE>
<DIV><BR>Strange. For a test, can you rename your file "gfs.12z.grib2" and try it again? <BR><BR> Thanks,<BR><BR> Arlindo<BR></DIV></DIV><BR><BR clear=all><BR>-- <BR>Arlindo da Silva<BR><A href="mailto:dasilva@alum.mit.edu" target=_blank>dasilva@alum.mit.edu</A> </BLOCKQUOTE></body></html>
