Workstation hangs when decoding upper air data

I'm running Digital Atmosphere Workstation v1.1 c1 on a Windows XP machine. I thought this used to work, but I can no longer decode upper air data. The program simply hangs and I have to get XP to force the digatm process to stop. This is a repeatable issue and it's a trivial matter to get Workstation to lock up.

I've tried this with both the COD and Albany Radiosonde data. Doesn't matter, it simply locks up. Has the data format changed and Workstation can no longer handle it.

Surface data works fine, it just appears to be upper air.

Joe,

I download Albany upper air data daily and haven't had a problem but I use DA ver 1.1j3 with Windows XP, therefore I am sure they haven't changed the format.

Thanks Peter! I figured it was on my end but I just wanted to make sure. Now to find out what's going on......
