1282.0. "Visual Fortran - Max Integer Size" by MKOTS3::HAHN (SBU Americas Technical Support Group) Fri May 02 1997 17:34

A customer would like to know what is the maximum size that can be defined for
the INTEGER data type in Visual Fortran.

He is currently using a DOS-based Fortran product that supports integers up 
to 2*31-1 and wants to ensure that Visual Fortran supports larger sizes.

Thanks,
 Dave

The largest integer size is 32-bits in DVF.  The x86 processor doesn't have
a 64-bit integer type, as far as I know.  I think we support INTEGER*8 on
Alpha.
