I don't think so. The only 'simple' approach I can
think of is to compute another range value in the
3-D grid whose values are z-grid - z-topography, then
map this to SelectRange. But this is probably more
complex than just going through the points and setting
those below the topography to missing.

Good luck,
Bill
