writing ascii file

Hi

I am writing an ascii file using the following code segments
  Output average values
   diro = "/tank/alim/WRF/stats/03062400/"
   filo = diro+"average"

   no_vars=6

   npts=26*6

   data = new(npts, "string")

   npts=-1

   do i=0,dim-1
       npts=npts+1
       data(npts) = sprinti("%6d", lev_p(i))
       data(npts) = data(npts)+sprintf("%8.5f", average_u_ctrl(i))
       data(npts) = data(npts)+sprintf("%8.5f", average_u_da(i))
       data(npts) = data(npts)+sprintf("%8.5f", average_v_ctrl(i))
       data(npts) = data(npts)+sprintf("%8.5f", average_v_da(i))
       data(npts) = data(npts)+sprintf("%8.4f", average_ghgt_ctrl(i))
       data(npts) = data(npts)+sprintf("%8.4f", average_ghgt_da(i))
   end do

   asciiwrite (filo , data)

The output file basically contains what i wanted but towards the end of
what i asked it to write, it appended the word missing.
Following is the segment of the file
   950 0.55090-0.70421 0.55090-9.22972 -3.6016 -1.8250
   975 0.10978-0.14815 0.10978-8.28661 -2.8962 -0.6138
  1000-999.00000-999.00000-999.00000-999.00000-999.0000-999.0000
missing
missing
missing
missing
missing

How do i rectify this?

Thanks
Agnes
