Re: opening the files

Something like this should work.

do iy=1979,2010
 do im=0,11

 if (im.le.8) then
 month="0"+(im+1)
 else
 month=""+(im+1)
 end if

 a=addfile("era.cice.h."+iy+"-"+month+".nc","r")

 end do
end do

So, when the code reads the data it reads: era.cice.h.1979-1.nc(http://era.cice.h.1979-1.nc) which is incorrect, it needs to be era.cice.h.1979-01.nc(http://era.cice.h.1979-01.nc)
