You'll have to ask the HDF user support team by filling out the HDF help form at http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu:8001/helpdesk.mail.html If I knew the email address, I'd just forward your query to them, but with the new form on the web, the email address is no longer apparent. ______________________________________________________________________________ Russ Rew UCAR Unidata Program address@hidden http://www.unidata.ucar.edu
