Hi Leilane,

No, unfortunately.  I thought that maybe installing CODAS also installed an
older version of the netCDF library than you had been using, but it appears
that CODAS doesn't depend on netCDF.  When you reinstalled matlab, did you 
also reinstall the same version of Toolbox For Matlab-5 that you had been using
previously?  Is there a separate test for Toolbox for Matlab-5 that you could
run to see if there's anything wrong with its installation?

Sorry we couldn't provide much help ...
