It seems that MTH$RANDOM must be declared as a REAL in the porgram because it begins with 'M' which is, by implicet definition an integer. Usually I place an IMPLICIT NONE at the top of every program, if I had done it here, I would have found the problem at link time. Thanks again, Dan Graham GRAHAM@DRCVAX.ARPA "Vini Vidi Hacki" ------
