Re write_matrix file name

Is there a particular reason that the matrix_write statement does not
have a closing double quote mark? This is what I see:

write_matrix(matrixall,"4f15.3,opt)

                                              ^ start quote ...... no
end quote mark; maybe this is the error?

Good luck,
Donna
