Thanks Jennifer!  That particular utility seems to work well for me.

The netcdf operator 'ncks' can do this with a simple one-line command: 
ncks -h -A file1.nc file2.nc

The -h option does not modify the global attribute 'history', the -A options means the variables in file1 are appended to file2. There is no need for me to write a whole lot of code in GrADS to do this when it is so easy with ncks.
