[DO 10 I = 1.100] I've had that error too. It seems to have been a problem with a FORMAT statement. Probably an old bug fix is available - can any net archivist recall this? -- Col. G. L. Sicherman ...seismo!rochester!rocksanne!rocksvax!sunybcs!gloria!colonel

If it is specifically a problem with a FORMAT statement, it's likely
one that is too long. 4.1 F77 had a 200-or-so-element array of chars
to hold any one statement, and no overflow checking. 4.2 F77 seems
to have a larger array, but still no overflow checking.
My fix to the 4.1 F77 compiler was to increase the limit to about
1K, *and to add overflow checking*. It's not that hard to do; why
doesn't anyone else seem to do it??
