I'm not at all familiar with the data produced by the program you are
working with. Do you have a small example file (< 1MB or so) that you
could attach?

By the way, it is completely worth spending some time working through
the ParaView Tutorial:

http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/images/1/13/ParaViewTutorial52.pdf

It will give you a good idea of how to use ParaView and answers many
questions new users have about ParaView.

HTH,
Cory
