Marinna:

You don't mention which version of netcdf you are trying
to build. For Visual C++, I strongly suggest you use
netcdf-3 (ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/netcdf-3.3a.tar.Z).

You can save yourself the trouble of building it by grabbing a 32 bit
DLL from
ftp://ftp.jasco.co.jp/pub/NetCDF/Win32DLL/netcdf-3.3a-win32dll.tar.gz
(This was contributed by Tom Hondo.)

If you really need a project file, perhaps Mr. Hondo's distribution
has the one he used. We have one from netcdf-3.1a, but it is a bit out
of date.
