Hello,

>Can you verify whether the same behavior exists when you are running
>gdcross (instead of gdcross_gf) with gpend following. And,

        The same behavior is occuring with gdcross with a subsequent
gpend.  I just tested a couple of my scenerios below with the same
results.


>what OS you are running on.

        Linux 2.4.3-SGI_XFS_1.0.1smp #1 SMP Mon Jul 9 14:03:40 CDT 2001 i686
        NAWIPS 5.6.d.1 binary version

Yes.  My pqact entry is as follows.

# Process Global AVN thin
HRS     ^H.[I-P]... KWB. ([0-3][0-9])([0-2][0-9]).*
        PIPE    dcgrib2 -d data/gempak/logs/dcgrib.log
                -e GEMTBL=/home/nawips/nawips/gempak/tables
                data/gempak/hds/YYYYMMDDHH_thin.gem


Thanks again! Sorry for the trouble...
        Daryl
