Thanks, you are right that the file path is not correct. I just typed: nc_open("file.nc"), and it gave the error above.

I find your response confusing still... did you now no longer need help? If you are still puzzled, then what does file.info("file.nc") return? Do you see that file in your current directory via your operating system?

I did not set the correct path for the .nc file earlier. Now it is working properly.> I find your response confusing still... did you now no longer need help? > > If you are still puzzled, then what does > > file.info("file.nc") > > return? > > Do you see that file in your current directory via your operating system? > > On September 17, 2018 11:53:22 PM PDT, lily li <chocold12 at gmail.com> > wrote: > >Thanks, you are right that the file path is not correct.
