Hi Chris-

> So far I have created a grib1lookuptable.lst file and a grib_thesis.tab file 
> (both modeled after the tablelookup.lst and nceptab_131.tab respectfully) 
> From the instructions you pointed me to I have moved the files both into

Thanks for the table files.  Can you send a sample GRIB file if 
it's not too big?
