Dear Ricardo,<BR> <BR>Yes, I did as like as you explained. I am in doubt, maybe I have to do it again. I have a question; the source fnl file has a size of 23 MB, but after converting it to a ctl and an idx file, each of them has a size of just seven kb, is it correct and acceptable? I think maybe the converting process has not been done correctly.<br><BR>Regards,<BR> <BR>T. <BR><div><div id="SkyDrivePlaceholder"></div><br><br><br>> <br>> Hi People (Jeff, Saulo, T., others),<br>> <br>> T., please, could you check your .ctl file for the dset line?<br>> In the q file command, the output for the line:<br>> <br>> binary: E:/blablabla<br>> <br>> should be the name of the binary file (that is, the grib 1 file: fnl_20081112_18_00_c), not the .idx name file.<br>> <br>> The .idx has to be created with the gribmap command, outside the GrADS and before running GrADS:<br>> <br>> gribmap -i filename.ctl<br>> ?<br>> This command will CREATE an index file. The name of this index file is set in your .ctl file, as follow in the example below:<br>> <br>> dset fnl_20081112_18_00_c<br>> index anyname.idx<br>> title Test<br>> etc ...<br>> <br>> After getting this anyname.idx index file, you can open the .ctl file in GrADS and dysplay any variable.<br>> <br>> T., how did you get your .ctl file for this?
