Hi Doug,

GEMPAK includes a program called GDCROSS which will display vertical cross 
sections of scalar or vector grids.  The documentation for this program is 
online at:

http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/cgi-bin/gempak/manual/programs_index?gdcross

Hopefully this is what will work for the products you're trying to create.  If 
you have any specific questions about GDCROSS or the GFUNC/GPARM scalar and 
vector grid functions please let me know.
