Okay, the problem is primarily that you don't start the 'END' in column 1,
based on a very quick read of this very old code (this stuff was written
back in the 1980's, not by me - it works but is old fortran). You also have
3 blank lines at the end of the file; I don't think that is causing
problems, but I wouldn't take liberties with this stuff (and I don't want to
figure out everything that won't work...). So please try the modified file
I attached, with keywords starting in col 1 and the blank lines at the end
of the file removed.
Regards - Bob
