Hi Jon, Sorry, this was an oversight that we are fixing now. The F77 interface has NF_PUT_VLEN_ELEMENT and NF_GET_VLEN_ELEMENT functions, but the corresponding functions for the f90 interface are missing, as you have noticed. We'll try to get these in the next release, perhaps this week. Thanks for reporting the problem! --Russ Russ Rew UCAR Unidata Program address@hidden http://www.unidata.ucar.edu Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: CLD-454258 Department: Support netCDF Priority: Normal Status: Closed
