I have come across the ENCODE and DECODE key words in a few of the programs
that I have been working with.  I now realize that they are Fortran66 key
words.  My question is what are the Fortran77 equivalents of these two
key words.  Microsoft FORTRAN says that the equivalents are just READ and
WRITE.   I need to know the exact syntax in going from ENCODE and DECODE to
READ and WRITE.  An example of a command line that I have come across is:

		ENCODE(7,43,DUMMY1)DUMMY2

How would I form the equivalent with READ?

Thanks for any help.
