Thanks a lot for this idea, Warner. I was'nt knowing this fortran
statment! I should have read in more details the "Metcalf & al." book....

The final solution I used is:
INTEGER ::count
REAL ::w1,w2,w3
..........
READ(11,iostat=count) w1,w2,w3
IF (count.NE.0) THEN
w3=-1.0
backspace(11)
READ(11,err=111,end=112) w1,w2
ENDIF
....
and error processing for 111 and 112 labels.

Thanks all for your helpfull advices.

Patrick
