Code:
    SUBROUTINE TestInquire (NFIL)
    IMPLICIT NONE
    INTEGER, INTENT(IN) :: NFIL
    INTEGER  MXSAL, LP

!!    MXSAL = 0
    INQUIRE (UNIT= NFIL, RECL= MXSAL)

    LP = MXSAL+1
    LP = LP
    RETURN
    END


Why does this code provide
warnig 298 Variable MXSAL has been used without being given an initial value?
If I change UNIT= NFIL against e.g. FILE= 'xx.dat', I get the same warning.

It's because ! signifies 'Comment', and you commented out the assignment statement ...

Litus,

this is unqualified response! MXSAL = 0 should not be necessary.

A 'bug' it may be considered to be, however, it's invariably good practice to initialise ALL variables in a program ... init !!!
