NDG_PROP1 - Create a single new NDF by propagation using a specified parameter

Description:
This routine is equivalent to NDF_PROP except that it allows the NDF to be specified using a GRP group expression (for instance, its name may be given within a text file, etc). The first NDF in the group expression is returned. Any other names in the group expression are ignored. Modification elements use the name of the supplied NDF as the basis name.

Invocation:
CALL NDG_PROP1( INDF1, CLIST, PARAM, INDF2, NAME, STATUS )

Arguments:

INDF1 = INTEGER (Given)
Identifier for an existing NDF (or NDF section) to act as a template.
CLIST = CHARACTER $*$ ( $*$ ) (Given)
A comma-separated list of the NDF components which are to be propagated to the new data structure. By default, the HISTORY, LABEL and TITLE components and all extensions are propagated.
PARAM = CHARACTER $*$ ( $*$ ) (Given)
Name of the ADAM parameter for the new NDF.
INDF2 = INTEGER (Returned)
Identifier for the new NDF.
NAME = CHARACTER $*$ ( $*$ ) (Returned)
The full file specification for the NDF.
STATUS = INTEGER (Given and Returned)
The global status.
