I have never used any previously version of MicroSoft Fortran and would like to use a data file in an existing Fortran program. I looked at all the command line parameters and do not see a way to include a data file. For example, the previous version of Fortran allows me to type the following command to include a data file: F fortran program nameoutdata file The F is the name of the fortran compiler and the rest is just redirection commands. Is there a similar way in Fortran 5.0? Thanks in advance. teb106
