Greetings Sue, It's hard to say what is causing this error - would you mind sending a copy of the .xidv file so that I can test it here? Also, the 2.9u3 version of the IDV is over a year old - I would recommend updating to the latest release (3.0u2). The Linux installer can be found here: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/downloads/idv/current/index.jsp Cheers!
