What is the length of character variable I should use if I put in the iomsg= option into read, etc statements?
Doesn't seem to be specified in the help nor in the standard.

The standard doesn't say - this is implementation-dependent. Why not use 256 or some length near that - it should be enough.

Thanks, Steve.
I was coming up blank with an appropriate length.
