<div>Hi</div>
<div>Thank u so much for your time</div>
<div>That is the exact problem i am having</div>
<div>My guess is i need to make a control file myself for every other file</div>
<div>I am not sure if one can work for all and if this one is just a sample<br>

<div>thanks for the answer<br>
the version that i am using is 2.0 a8<br>
my main problem is do i have to make a control file for every one of the files that i want to read?<br>
I have a bunch of daily precipitations,that i attach one of them, but i just have one control file and i have no idea if that is just a sample, or it works for all of the files.<br>
<br>
the first one is the only control file that i have and the second one is precipitation for 01/04/2009<br>
<br>

<div>You are going to have to give us more information. Try and be more focused on the GrADS<a></a> files you are using, show us an example of one of the CTL<a></a> files, give us a link to the data files, and tell us what version of GrADS<a></a> you are using
