SUBROUTINE AR7_INITB( VALUE, DIMS, ARRAY, STATUS )
*+
*  Name:
*     AR7_INITB

*  Purpose:
*     Initialise 7-D array with BYTE value

*  Language:
*     Starlink Fortran

*  Invocation:
*     CALL AR7_INITB( VALUE, DIMS, ARRAY, STATUS )

*  Description:
*     Sets all the elements of a 7-D array to VALUE. Use this to initialise
*     7-D arrays, or arrays whose DIMS array has been padded up to 7-D.

*  Arguments:
*     VALUE = BYTE (given)
*        Value to insert into array
*     DIMS[7] = INTEGER (given)
*        Dimensions of 7-D array
*     ARRAY[] = BYTE (returned)
*        The initialised array
*     STATUS = INTEGER (given)
*        The global status.

*  Examples:
*     {routine_example_text}
*        {routine_example_description}
