Hi Elaheh,

Sorry, but I don't understand what you mean by "dat".  Wikipedia says this 
about files with 
a ".dat" extension:

  .dat – not specific file type, often generic extension for "data" files for a 
variety of applications
   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_file_formats

I don't think converting netcdf to dat, is a well-defined conversion.

If you just want to see text versions of netCDF data, see this FAQ:

  How do I convert netCDF data to ASCII or text?
