Giovsnni,

Hmm... were any of the images that you could NOT map the ones that you
made available on your web page?  If so, I can only say that I can
display and map ALL of those images, but as I told Mike V., I am
using my 7.8 version of McIDAS.

OK, so there is a problem with those first two images.

It doesn't make sense that you would be able to correctly draw a map
on an image, but not be able to probe it correctly!

This failure agrees with no LAT/LON listing from the probe.

Again, are any of these images ones you made available on your web page?
Also again, I can display and MAP all of those images.

Could I get a login from the account you are running the IMGDISP
and MAP commands from?  I am suspicious that something is wrong in your
envionment like FrameN.M files in your MCPATH which you do not have
write access to.  If this were the case, you would be able to display
images, but not update the frame directories (FrameN.M) with NAV
information, and MAP would fail.
