sequential/direct acces file

[Marcio_Pmz]

Hello,

I have a file which is created for direct access,

open(1, file='file1.bin', access='direct',recl=lengthrec)

write(1,rec=nrec)[1.0,irec=1,lengthrec]

Eventually, I want to acces it as a sequential file. Is it possible?

Thanks!

You would have to close it and reopen it for sequential access. Add recordtype='fixed' and specify the same recl= value.

Dear Steve (Dr Fortran), So the key is recordtype='fixed'! Well, Thank you, very much!
