[gradsusr] ERA-40 NC template (still doesn't work)

[Jose Augusto Paixão Veiga]

Prezado Hallak,

Thanks for your hint and sorry by don't give more details about the files my CTL try  to ingest, my bad. More details about the archives I am using include: they are monthly means inside a file named by their respective year, for example: data_1979.nc contains data for the months JAN, FEB,..., DEC, as in the other files (data_1980.nc, data_1981.nc......data_1999.nc). Because of this, my CTL should include monthly time increment, instead years steps. 

Unfortunately, the problem persists.

Sdcs,

José Augusto P. Veiga,
