Chloe,

I cannot look at these data as they are password protected. At any rate, it
looks like you loaded some data and using the Observation List display. If so
then that won't work as these are gridded data. You may wish to look under
Formulas in the Field Selector ->Export-> Export grid to Excel. It will 
prompt you for a xls filename and a field to write.

Best,

Unidata IDV Support
