hi,

The open statement for output file you have entered is as follows,

OPEN (UNIT=17,FILE=TestoutputV,status='new')

In this statement is says that the status is new. ("Status = 'new'). and
that must be the reason why it keeps on saying the output file already
exists.

this file cannot be new everytime as this file is already created in your
first run.

you can do one thing, remove that status in your statement as it is
optional, else you can give the statement as follows,

Open (17,file='testoutput')......

This must solve your problem. I am actually using FORTRAN 99.

Please check it and let me know, whther you solved your problem or not.....
