The compiler seems to think you did not declare this variable anywhere...
You have to make sure that you have declared it (like below) and that it
is available where you are trying to use it.
integer :: myVar
If you are really trying to mirror the "rem" variable, then put something
like
integer, save :: myVar
in whatever module you are editing (e.g., remd) and make sure you "use"
that module in every subroutine you want to access it in. (If the module
was used before in that subroutine, add myVar to the list of "only"
variables there instead of creating a whole new "use" statement).
