VAX-VMS File to PC Fortran....Help!! F1...

VAX-VMS File to PC Fortran....Help!! F1...

(OP)
Hello there:

I have a FORTRAN program written and ran in VAX-ALPHA machine. Now, I need to convert the Program to PC Fortran (COMPAQ-Visual Fortran). My problem is as follows:
The Alpha version uses RANDOM ACCESS FILE, but with no FORMAT STATEMENT. The Problems are ran and stored in Record Set (close to 1000), and each set is having 180 variables.
The original file record lenght was set as REC= 1048. Do you know any general rule to make the RECORD LENGHT so that I can use the same data file (the VAX file), where all the previous data are stored.

Thanks,

-Bando
