Hi Steve... I found out why the Model Vertical Profile FDF's were not activated....I had to clarify that I want a Logarithmic display then that activates the fdfs for that section.. Thanks for your efforts..

I have successfully: - converted our CMC data into Gempak format - added new fdfs into the fdf directories - made appropriate changes to the $GARPHOME/config/Garp_defaults file - started Garp and had Garp recognize my models and have been able to use the fdfs except for those in the Model Vertical Profile section. The Model Plan Projection, Model Cross Section and Model Time Height buttons all work fine. Their pop up submenus allow me to access all available fdfs including the new ones I put in..that's great. But for some reason, when I hit the Model Vertical Profile Button, the associated pop up menu appears but the fdfs listed under scalar and vector are fuzzed out. It is reading them in the directory, I can see a fuzzed out name for each of them but access to them is not provided. I've read and re-read the Garp_defaults file over and over trying to figure out what if any changes I have to do..I'm stuck.. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Lewis Poulin
