Dear all,

I need some help here. I guess that my problem is kind of usual but I
couldn't find a way to solve it yet. I have gone through some of the past
opendx-user mail files and I couldn't find any help.

I have a collection of points which are x and y coordinates and elevation z.
My initial data is scattered set of points with no connections: a 3 columns
ASCII file. To start I Import the ascii file using a general file to
describe it, then autogrid it and export it as a 'dx' format file.
(The headers of the 'general' and 'dx' files that I created are at the end
of this message).

I managed to create a Rubbersheet with the dx data, autocolor and find the
gradient of the surface. But now I would like to input the X and Y
coordinates of some points and find out the corresponding Z value. Is this
possible?

If somebody could point me to the past emails that could help or give some
hints or suggestions, it would be great.

Thanks

Jens
