Thanks for your > help, > > Wen > Wen, The list of grids that provides the tabs/labels is obtained from the $GEMTBL/nmap/mod_res.tbl file. On startup, nmap2 reads that file and determines all grid datatypes provided in the rightmost (4th) column of that file. To remove unused entries, you can edit the file and do a global deletion of the string such as ";fslruc2", or use a stream editor like sed like: cat mod_res.tbl | sed 's/;fslruc2//g' > mod_res.newtbl If you are editing a model list where you would delete all of the grid names, then instead comment out the line.
