Then when you write out the defined variable with sdfwrite, all varying dimensions should be there. Check the docs for 'set sdfwrite' too, you may be missing an option.

Hi, Wesley:<br>
I an new to Grads, and now I have to deal with grb files without
any .ctl file provided. I found out that you have grib2ctl.sh
script, but the link to it (
<a href="http://wesley.wwb.noaa.gov/grib2ctl.html" target="_blank">http://wesley.wwb.noaa.gov/grib2ctl.html</a>
) is broken. Would you please let me know where I can find this
script, and how to use it?<br>
Thank you very much!<br>
