Hi Rodrigo, 
Thanks for this hint.  I'll take a look at it as well.

Hello Jan,

Yes I agree with Spencer that probably the easiest thing would be to use the FieldConvert utility - please see the user manual.

You can use a simple command like the following to probe the solution at a given list of points.

./FieldConvert -m interppoints:fromxml=cube.xml:fromfld=cube_t0.fld points.pts field_t0.dat

I am sending attached an example for the list of points which should be in a given structure (check the attached points.pts file).

You need the XML, the FLD and the PTS file to get a DAT file.

Kind regards,
Rodrigo
