Thank you for your reply ... I am opening the files as "unformatted". I am enclosing a test program (test1.f) with its output. The program creates an unformatted sequential file, apparently without problems, but I see it has 4137 bytes instead of 4136 as it should. Then it crashes when I want to read the file, I am enclosing the output I get. Thank you for your help. My best regards, Marta character row dimension aj(100),sal(100) numx=100 numy=10 call getarg(1,row) if(row.eq.'')then write(0,*)'test1 w (write file) or test1 r (read file)' stop end if if(row.eq.'w')then open(1,file='test1.unf',status='new', form='unformatted',err=100) write(1)numx,numy do i=1,numy do j=1,numx aj(j)=float(j)*float(i) end do ai=i write(0,*)'i=',i write(1)ai,(aj(j),j=1,numx) write(0,*)ai,(aj(j),j=1,numx) end do close(1) stop 100 write(0,*)'error opening file to write' stop end if if(row.eq.'r')then open(1,file='test1.unf',status='old', form='unformatted', err=200) read(1)numx,numy write(*,*)numx,numy do i=1,numy read(1)ai,(sal(j),j=1,numx) write(*,*)ai,(sal(j),j=1,numx) end do close(1) stop 200 write(0,*)'error opening file to read' stop end if write(0,*)'test1 w (write file) or test1 r (read file)' end This is the output when I run the program to read the filel test1.unf: 100 10 1. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. 26. 27. 28. 29. 30. 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36. 37. 38. 39. 40. 41. 42. 43. 44. 45. 46. 47. 48. 49. 50. 51. 52. 53. 54. 55. 56. 57. 58. 59. 60. 61. 62. 63. 64. 65. 66. 67. 68. 69. 70. 71. 72. 73. 74. 75. 76. 77. 78. 79. 80. 81. 82. 83. 84. 85. 86. 87. 88. 89. 90. 91. 92. 93. 94. 95. 96. 97. 98. 99. 100. do_us: end of file apparent state: unit 1 named test1.unf last format: list io lately reading sequential unformatted external IO Abort!
