The first thing that I would check is the results of 'which mcserv' from the login from which you were trying to run the McIDAS command before you start a McIDAS session. The next thing I would try -- after starting that McIDAS session -- is a '! which mcserv' from the McIDAS Text and Command window. It may be possible that your PATH is getting hosed up from within your McIDAS session, so mcserv can't be found. I find this hard to believe given you said that you were able to access both image and NEXRCOMP datasets from that session, but I am grasping at straws to understand what may be happening. Tom
