Odd.  I recall responding to your email.

I believe the problem is easily fixed.  See below.

Because netCDF variables can be multi-dimensional, the "timdmid"
argument in the above must be a vector instead of a scalar.  The value
of the first element of the vector must be "timdmid".

You should also check the return-code every time.
