************************************************************************ SUBROUTINE NBSTER ************************************************************************ Near line 330 of SUBROUTINE NBSTER, a new line should be inserted before the " 160 READ(LFNSTR,..." command, as shown below: IUSR = 1 IF(LFNSTR.EQ.0) GOTO 190 160 READ(LFNSTR,*,ERR=190,END=190) IUBAS,JUBAS This prevents a possible run-time hang for compilers that do recognize "READ(LFNSTR,...,END=190)" as a run-time check for existence (as well as zero content) of the LFNSTR scratch file. ************************************************************************
