Thanks again David.
Who could imagine that it would have been so tough...
A little problem occured in when testing with the Undefined-key:
when testing the field-value with 'Finite' i had always a '1'
returned. The 'Undefined' in FSC_Field was set to -9999.0 as in your
example; only when i set it to 1e39, i had the expected result ...
Kind regards
-Ralf
p.s.: a few days ago, i asked you a about a 'dynamical structure' and
you answered pointers would do. I tried that and it works :-)

I remember this being a LOT harder than it looks. :-)
You can see how I did it in FSC_FIELD. The example
code at the end of the file (do a .compile of the
file to see it) gives an example of how to test for
an undefined value, etc.
