There used to be an article, but it became out of date with upgrades to HDF, so it was removed. There is a HDF WWW server: http://yahoo.ncsa.uiuc.edu:8001 and an FAQ there: http://yahoo.ncsa.uiuc.edu:8001/HDF-FAQ.html which has a specific question (question 6): http://yahoo.ncsa.uiuc.edu:8001/HDF-FAQ.html#6 related to netcdf and HDF. Hope this helps. Mike
