Is it the case ?

Are you sure that you only changed W2_useE2ioLayOut
from TRUE (= the default) to FALSE ?
Because I've just checked and W2_useE2ioLayOut has no effect on loading 
the grid-files so I am little bit surprised (if reading grid-files
was working before with W2_useE2ioLayOut=T it should work the same way now 
with W2_useE2ioLayOut=F).

And just one more thing: not sure how to modify/adapt Gael's script
for mnc + rdmnc.m output if you are using blank-tiles.

Cheers,
Jean-Michel
