Hey Even

thanks for the reply.

I am well aware of the -b option, the problem here is that each raster
has not the same bands order.
Therefore, as I had to make some work on just one single band
representing the same variable in all of the datasets, I ended up to
write a script, iterate the datasets, then iterate the bands, read the
metadata, and when found the correct band ran the process on it.

thanks a lot in any case
cheers
