Re: Concatting data from "degenerate" files...

[Lev Tarasoff <lev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Gary;
	A crude work about would be to save the data consecutively to
an ascii file (with /nohead) and then access the file with
the appropriate grid
ie:

list /file=tempfile.ascii atemp[d=1,k=1]
list /file=tempfile.ascii /app atemp[d=2,k=1]

DEFINE GRID /x=.. /y=.. /T=tn grid2dplustn
FILE /var="atemp" /Grid=grid2dplustn tempfile.ascii

cheers
