DAT_GET1x - Read vector primitive

Description:
Read a vector primitive.
Invocation:
CALL DAT_GET1x( LOC, ELX, VALUE, EL, STATUS )
Arguments:
LOC = CHARACTER * ( DAT__SZLOC ) (Given)
Primitive locator.
ELX = INTEGER (Given)
Maximum size of value.
VALUE = ?( ELX ) (Returned)
Object value.
EL = INTEGER (Returned)
Number of elements.
STATUS = INTEGER (Given and Returned)
