<div class="">> (as stated above that NCL assumes users already know this info).<br>
<br>
</div>But that does not address Ploski's and my objection WRT function/procedure signatures.<br>
<div class=""><br>
> By request, we can certainly create a function which will return the file-path of the file variable.<br>
<br>
</div>Consider my post == 2nd request and Ploski's post (above) == 6.5-yr-old request. If there is an NCL issue manager (e.g., bugzilla), feel free to pass a link and I'll put an FR.<br>
<br>
