Hi Miguel, We need more information to diagnose the problem. What is not working properly? Are you getting an error message, does the program crash, are the values just not what you expect, or does the program read the first record OK but not the second? Can you provide access to the file you are trying to read, or at least the output of "ncdump -c jan9MFSTEP1671_T.nc" so we can see what the structure of the file is and whether your Fortran calls match with the structure of the file? It's easiest for us to figure out what is causing a problem if we can reproduce the problem here. --Russ Russ Rew UCAR Unidata Program address@hidden http://www.unidata.ucar.edu Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: MLP-485355 Department: Support netCDF Priority: Normal Status: Closed
