You are running into default formatting problems, for sure.
Try this:

Print, array[0], Format='(F13.6)'

And if you really need all those decimal points, you are
probably going to have to make this a double precision array
(DBLARR). Double complex is probably going a bit overboard,
however. :-)

Cheers,

David
