FORTRAN - ENTRY sentence. How to understand it?

Everything was ok, until it appeared the following statement: CODE 1 SUBROUTINE gday(idd,imm,iyear,kd) . . . 20 ENTRY dmy(idd,imm,iyear,kd) 21 22 ! GIVEN THE (GREGORIAN) DAY#, KD, AS CALCULATED ABOVE IN THIS ROUTINE, 23 ! ENTRY DMY RETURNS THE (GREGORIAN) DAY, MONTH, YEAR AND CENTURY. 24 25 ! TEST FOR VALID INPUT: 26 IF(kd <= 0) WRITE(lp,5040)kd 27 5040 FORMAT(' KD = ',i7,' INVALID INPUT. DMY STOP.') 28 ! 29 ! SAVE KD 30 kkd=kd . . . In the main program there is a calling to dmy subroutine, but obviously MATLAB doesn't find the subroutine/function dmy. My questions are: 1. Can i cut the code from line 20 to the end, paste it in a new file, and save like a separate subroutine? 2. Is there any dependence between variables previouslly declared from lines 1 to 19 and variables before line 20? 3. If answer to question 1 is no, What should i do? Thanks!
