I have not seen this behavior, but I am not greatly suprised. The netCDF ADDE server needs some close attention to make it more useful. Since there is interest here at the UPC for added functionality in the server, I will add looking at the code to my list of development projects. It will be very useful to get a test dataset that shows the failure so I can find the problem you are seeing. The problem with getting it rignt now is that I will be heading to the airport in about three hours to fly to Brazil. I won't be returning until September 13. >Thanks, No worries.
