This solution is ok but I don't like requiring absolute path names. It easier to add the table to the master list of tables in tablelookup.lst for the package. 

I have to agree with you. Also, the GSFC people who originally
contacted me about the GRIBTAB issue were particuarly concerned
aboutusers who wouldn't understand that they'd have to deal with
GRIBTAB files to go with the GRIB datasets.

However, they have also said they're somewhat new to GRIB
themselves (or as they said, "we're more HDF folks") so it may
be a while before you hear from Chris L. about adding to the
master list.

Thanks much for the help,
