Dear Dick,

thank you for your answer . You were right and "dir" was my home directory. But I did some mistake because now the code works and I can add the records to the file "atl.grb2".
I'm wondering if there is a code example in the IDL documentation where I can find and example of writing a new grib(2) file , i.e. without using the file atl.grb2 as the starting point.

Thanks .

Stefano

In any case, if GRIB_LIST worked with dir+'atl.grb2', and if you are getting 'file' from FILEPATH(), which returns a fully-qualified path, you would be calling GRIB_PUTDATA with a filename of something like /path/to/examples/data//path/to/examples/data/atl.grb2, which I will guess does not exist.
