Steve,

Neither of these is the case and it's driving me nuts..  From within
the script, after sourcing /home/gempak/GEMPAK5.8.1/Gemenviron,
echo $GEMTBL shows 

GEMTBL is /home/gempak/GEMPAK5.8.1/gempak/tables

There is a /home/gempak/GEMPAK5.7.2p2 on the machine also, but this
script definitely is not looking there.  It's using the nex2gini from
the /home/gempak/GEMPAK5.8.1/bin/linux/nex2gini

I've renamed the datatype.tbl in the 5.7.2 directory to be a different name,
and now a 'find' command on / for datatype.tbl only finds the one in 
the 5.8.1/gempak/tables/common directory.

Is there any way from within nex2gini that I can find out where it
is looking?  Some debug flag or something?

Pete
