	VMS deals poorly with variable length keys, so we use fixed length ones 
made by padding the small variable length ones out. KEY_SIZE should, therefore,
be large enough to hold the largest key you plan to use. Add that to
the size of the largest datum you will associate with a key to compute
MAX_RECORD.

	In this application, the data stored are all 8 bytes.
