Freeform not trigger..

[Denis Nadeau]

Nathan,

Thanks for the TypeMatch line.  That was my main problem.

But, I still have an issue with endianness and FreeForm.  I have a
file that seems to have been created as MSB and my machines are LSB.
It is not the first time I fall in this problem and cannot find how to
set up the form file.

I found data_byte_order on some FreeForm web site but did not get
success with it.

Do you know how to specify a data_byte_order(MSB) in the free form file.

BTW, I have just set up opendap at home.

Take a look.

Denis
