If you have a minimal example I could help modify the existing parallel file I/O implementation to see if we can get what you want. I don't know of anyone relying on backward compatibility for the parallel format, so I'm not too worried about changes there. -Ben ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ November Webinars for C, C++, Fortran Developers Accelerate application performance with scalable programming models.
