I have never seen this error before.  Please run the Spread
Sheet in jdb by typing "jdb visad.ss.SpreadSheet" at the command
prompt, then typing "run" after jdb loads.  When running in JDB,
you'll receive line numbers in parentheses when it prints the
stack trace, instead of the "Compiled Code" message.  The line
numbers will help a lot in debugging.  Thanks.

These messages are nothing to worry about.  They are just messages
indicating certain units were not found in the netCDF database.
The file should still load correctly.
