Deb,

Long time no hear!

DMGRID is part of the XCD component of Unidata McIDAS.  In order to build
the XCD portion of the distribution, you would have had to do a:

make mcx
make xcd

or

make all

If you built Unidata McIDAS with a simple:

make

you only built McIDAS-X.  At this point you only need to do a:

make xcd
make install.xcd

To finish off the build/install.

>Thanks much.
