Jon, The update to include these functions for the Fortran-90 interface will not make it into the 4.0.1-beta3 we are releasing today or tomorrow, so for now, I recommend that you use the F77 functions NF_PUT_VLEN_ELEMENT and NF_GET_VLEN_ELEMENT, which are interoperable with the F90 interface. Because the F90 interface is built on top of the F77 interface, those functions are also automatically available to a program that links successfully with the F90 interface. --Russ Russ Rew UCAR Unidata Program address@hidden http://www.unidata.ucar.edu Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: CLD-454258 Department: Support netCDF Priority: Normal Status: Closed
