The NETCDF environment variable might be used by other apps, but it is not used
by the netCDF library or utilities. So it doesn't matter what it is set to.

When you run the command "ncdump" the OS will look in your path and find the
first ncdump. Type the command "echo $PATH" to see your path.

What gets linked is what appears on the compile command line. It should contain
a -I option which points to the netCDF-4 include directory, and a -L option
which points to the built netCDF library directory.

In netCDF-4 you should be using the nf90_hdf5 flag, not the nf90_format_netcdf4
flag in your nf90_create call.

Let me know if this doesn't help.

Thanks!
