That has fixed the problem.
I had searched for info on how to do this and found a posting (not sure if  
it was in this group archive) that suggested the 'file = read(argv(){1});'  
syntax and the response at the time was that it worked...so that is what I  
had been trying.

Well, 'autspec' is a local function that I have written, and 'psddata' is  
the file that resulting data is written to.

I had spend some time trying to sort this proble, so many thanks for your  
advice.
