<DIV>Dear grads users,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I want to perform an action (write out a name) depending on the value of a grads data variable.</DIV>
<DIV>In other words, I have a grads data file that contains a code number for the name of a location.</DIV>
<DIV>In my control file I have the variable stationID and I want to do the following:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>set t 1</DIV>
<DIV>set x 1</DIV>
<DIV>set y 1</DIV>
<DIV>set z 1</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>if (stationID=101) </DIV>
<DIV>'draw string 1 1 Pascagoula'</DIV>
<DIV>endif</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>
<DIV>if (stationID=201) </DIV>
<DIV>'draw string 1 1 Agricola'</DIV>
<DIV>endif</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The above does not work, can anyone tell me how to do this?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks in advance,</DIV>
<DIV>Sytske</DIV>
