<font size=2 face="sans-serif">Hi All,</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I have a FORTRAN program, which needs
to open a new file and write information to it. I only want the main processor
to do the writing, so I did this: </font>
<br>
<br><font size=3 color=red> </font><font size=3> </font><font size=3 color=blue><b>IF</b></font><font size=3>
(IMRANK .EQ. 0) </font><font size=3 color=blue><b>THEN</b></font><font size=3 color=#008000><b>
</b></font>
<br><font size=3 color=red> </font><font size=3>
</font><font size=3 color=blue><b>OPEN</b></font><font size=3> (IDRUNT(IDEM),FILE=DIRFIL(IDEM),</font>
<br><font size=3 color=red> </font><font size=3 color=white>&</font><font size=3>
ACCESS=</font><font size=3 color=#800000>'DIRECT'</font><font size=3>,RECL=LREC_DIR)
</font><font size=3 color=#008000><b>
</b></font>
<br><font size=3 color=red> </font><font size=3> </font><font size=3 color=blue><b>END
IF</b></font><font size=3> </font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">However, no matter how many processors
I specified for the program, after the parallel program finishes, the file
(121M) generated by the main processor is different from the one (30M)
generated without paralleling.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Can someone provide any insights? </font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Thanks.</font>
