Hi Donna!
I am back and was finally able to check. The metric file, as you suspected, 
only contains the header. I have uploaded the metric file, the functional 
volume (.hdr and .img in Analyze format) and the fiducial surface.
I am working on a Debian Linux platform.
Thank you for your help,
Marco
