[ferret_users] descriptor file for netcdf files with no Time Axis

[Andy Chiodi <chiodi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello All,

	I have run into a problem trying to use a .des file to link 
daily average netcdf files in time.  The problem is that the variables of 
interest in the netcdf files do not have a time axis.  This causes ferret 
to only access the final netcdf file listed in the descriptor file. 
Re-saving the netcdf with a time axis would work, but the number and 
size of files makes this option very unattractive.  Has anyone worked out 
an elegant solution to this problem ?

thanks,
	Andy
