<br>
I just tried it and got the same result, but I was able to fix
it and make it work. You will need to make four changes in the
.ctl file:<br>
<ol>
<li>DSET entry: Put your data path in the "your-data-set-path"
section.</li>
<li>DSET entry: Change "intrp" to "interp" in the file name
(it's a typo and I just notified the developer).</li>
<li>DSET entry: Put the date of the file you're interested in in
the "%y4%m2%d2%h2" part. </li>
</ol>
(To summarize the first three points, the file name in the DSET
entry should EXACTLY match the name of the file you're trying to
plot).
<ol>
<li>If your machine is little Endian rather than big Endian,
change the OPTIONS entry from "big_endian" to
"little_endian". (If you're not sure, just try both. The bad
one will give you nonsensical values).<br>
</li>
</ol>
One other suggestion is to get rid of the "template" option in
the OPTIONS entry. It has its uses, but one of the bad things
about it is that it stops GrADS from giving an error message if it
can't find the actual file (hence it didn't yell about any of the
issues in changes 1-3 which kept it from finding the file) and it
kept me from realizing the problem sooner.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Bob<br>

Hello Marwan,
From looking at a fortran The CMORPH data files are flat (only data)
files - the data are big-endian 4-byte floating point numbers.
You can read the data in to GrADS and process it as you like. You could
also read the gridded data in Matlab using "fread" and extract or process
the data at the point of interest.
regards - Nick

<pre wrap="">Dear Bob,
Could you be more a specific about what type of program I should be
using because I am new to this. I am trying to simple calculation such as
Regression analysis, Correlation, RMS
Also, I am trying to compute the annual, monthly, 10-daily, daily for
a specific coordinate and plot.
I was working on matlab because I am familiar with it but now with
CMORPH files I am not sure what use. I am kinda of beginner user.
However, I am a fast learner if you could guide through the process or
at least referring to me some website that would be great.
Best regards,
Marwan

<pre wrap="">Dear Marwan,
The only way I know to plot CMORPH data is to use the control files
and README guidance in <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="ftp://ftp.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/precip/global_CMORPH/">ftp://ftp.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/precip/global_CMORPH/</a>.
Cheers,

<pre wrap="">Hi gradusers,
I have been trying to open and plot these data but before that is
there is anyway to change there extension from binary to familiar
extenstion as in HDF NetCDF or Asccii file.
Also, is there is away to install grad into windows os or is it
better to use ubuntu linxus distribution or any other referrals. I
am new on this but I wish someone could have some experience with
that to help/ share.
Thank you all for your help in advance.
