Great, I'm glad it was that simple.

I think the library files that got unzipped into the bin directory
were a mistake.  The library files should be accessed from the lib
directory.  The only things that should be in the bin directory are
the ncdump.exe and ncgen.exe executables, which you don't need to link
the test.  I suspect the guy who created this zip file meant to put
ncdump.exe and ncgen.exe in the bin directory.

-----Original Message-----
Russ:  I have now generated typesizes.mod and netcdf.mod files using the
Lahey F90 compiler.  When I compile the netcdf.f90 file, I get 140 warnings
from the netcdf_overloads.f90 file stating something along the lines of

"Specific procedures (nf90_put_att_onebyteint) and (nf90_put_att_twobyteint)
do not insure that the generic procedure (nf90_put_att) is unambiguous"

I get these for the various names in netcdf_overloads.f90 for interface
nf90_put_att, interface nf90_get_att, interface nf90_put_var, and interface
nf90_get_var.

When I try to compile netcdf_test.f90 with the *.mod files, I get 8 errors
that state

"Generic procedure reference must be unambiguous for nf90_put_att" for line
52
"Generic procedure reference must be unambiguous for nf90_put_att" for line
55
"Generic procedure reference must be unambiguous for nf90_put_var" for line
86
"Generic procedure reference must be unambiguous for nf90_put_var" for line
87
"Generic procedure reference must be unambiguous for nf90_put_var" for line
91
"Generic procedure reference must be unambiguous for nf90_put_var" for line
97
"Generic procedure reference must be unambiguous for nf90_put_var" for line
98
"Generic procedure reference must be unambiguous for nf90_put_var" for line
100

So sometimes it knows what to do with nf90_put_att or nf90_put_var and
sometimes it doesn't.  How can I overcome the warnings in netcdf.f90 or the
errors in nectcdf_test.f90?
