Christopher,

Sorry, about the link.  I would attach the file here, but it exceeds the 
mailing list’s size limits.  The solver I’m using is probably using an older 
version of the TecIO library, since changes to the Tecplot file format have 
been changing pretty frequently in recent years…  Hopefully someone else who 
can download the file can help identify which token(s), if any, are causing a 
problem.

Best Regards,
