Hi German,

The problem is that the file paths in the ncml:

> Error creating data source:aggregated.netcdf.grid with: [C:\Documents and 
> Settings\n00195076\Desktop\LAPS_Grid\LAPS\20040904_0500.nc, C:\Documents and 
> Settings\n00195076\Desktop\LAPS_Grid\LAPS\20040904_0600.nc

Have a leading "C:" and the ncml code is treating those like a URL. If the ncml 
is in the same directory as the data files you can just have relative file 
names, e.g.:
"20040904_0500.nc"

Also, try running with the latest IDV release:
