   REQ: Declaring variables and file for ra

   Hi,   
      
   I have a question about declaring variables for writing data to a file for   
   random access.   
   I have two string variables declared in a module (user-defined types).   
   The point is that for one of them  i can't define (hard coded) a fixed   
   length because the application is reading data   
   from another file (In that file they have the same lenght).   
   Is it possible to use the lenght i obtain from reading that other file to   
   declare my variable or are there   
   other possibilities.   
      
   Thanks in advance,   
      
   Stefanie
