Jump to PostIt's been too long and ForTran has changed. If you explain what the arrays mean in FTN, we can probably give you more exact answers.

Thank Dragon!
I think you are right at the first one. For second one, it might be just a string: string ST?

CHARACTER ST*(*) is just a string to be converted;
CHARACTER ST1*10 is used to save some characters which length is less than or equal 10.

String like a C++ string or a C-string? Be specific.

I was asking what the declaration means, not how they are going to be used. We need to know the language definition.
