Chiz, I did make John's change before I made nmap2, so that shouldn't be the problem (besides, doesn't nmap use the same routine?). Your second point may offer a clue, because I don't see ALL the times in the directory at once. I hadn't realized the I should, necessarily. I'm getting at most 47 times displayed (fewer if I set the time to something closer to the beginning of the case study) even though there are 109 files in ${CASE}/images/sat/GOES-8/4km/IR. Sorry I didn't make that clear before.

Both are being invoked from the same ntl session, so they have the same environment settings. When I do "Select Time" in nmap2, the dates and times displayed reflect accurately the files that are available. Then, when I make a selection, the background map switches to the proper projection, but the image is not displayed. I checked the support archives and don't see anything about this, so I thought I'd ask. Again, nmap works fine, the problem is only with nmap2. Also both programs work correctly with real-time data and the filenames used for case study and real-time data have the same format.
