Richard, i am now accessing the MSG dataset. I had a few questions. I can IMGDISP however, i cannot overlay MAP...the error indicates no navigation for the frame. secondly, when i IMGCOPY it does not allow a BAND=ALL Third, when i IMGOPY BAND=4 instead, when i try to display the resulting image locally i get a white image with navigation/calibration. any clues? thanks, Randy Alliss -----Original Message----- From: Richard Garey [mailto:address@hidden] Sent: Wednesday, April 28, 2004 2:02 PM To: Alliss, Randall J.
