Hi Sepideh,

re:
> How can i open an area file in mcidas and then convert it to netcdf?

The process of converting an image in McIDAS AREA file format to
netCDF format is:

- create an ADDE dataset for the image(s) in AREA file format

- create an output ADDE dataset in NCDF format

  Please see the HELP or web page for DSSERVE for how to create an
  output NCDF dataset

- IMGCOPY from the input dataset to an element of the output dataset.
  The format conversion is done transparently by the ADDE servers.

Cheers,

Tom
