Using Compaq Fortran 6.6
When opening a sequential unformatted file you have to specify the maximum record length.
If you write on a record more than this maximum, there is no problem.
What does the compiler ?
It seems that it doesn't take into account the maximum length !
Remark: we use the /assume:byterecl option.

No, you don't have to specify the maximum RECL for a sequential unformatted file unless it is RECORDTYPE='FIXED'.
