Hi Joe, I forgot to tell you about a program called ToolsUI that will create a CDL for both Grib1 or Grib2 files. You can download ToolsUI jar from: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf-java/ There is a ncdump tab in ToolsUI, after selecting enter the Grib file and enter, it will bring up a CDL file that can be saved. There no documentation but the program isn't that complicated. Hope this helps, RObb...
