 That's correct, you do *not* want the "end" statement if you don't have a "begin" statement, or you will get an error.  Perhaps what you mean to use was "quit".
The "begin" and "end" statements are optional for the main NCL code, but not optional when you are defining procedures and functions.

Hi,

I am not sure you need the

line when you copy and paste, and execute line by line, but if so, how come you have no

begin

?
