In such cases, it is always necessary to include the exact
error messages.  From the program, it is possible to guess
at a few things.

Uh, it is not.

RECORDTYPE="STREAM" is not standard Fortran.  I can only guess at
its meaning, maybe ACCESS="STREAM" is what you want.

If you are reading the full text file, like

it will fail on the first read. You need to skip the
header.

Please note that this is list is for development of gfortran,
not for general Fortran questions (although we like to help).
The Usenet newsgroup comp.lang.fortran is more appropriate.
