Getting values of a parallel vector

[Jaime Suarez]

Good morning,

My question is about getting the values of a parallel vector in the
PETSc subroutines using Fortran 90.

As far as I know, I can invoke:
CALL VecGetArrayF90
in order to get the full array that is being considered in each
processor. However, I cannot employ this tool since I need to have also
the values that are stored in other processors. Is there a straight way
to get the value of the n-th element of a parallel vector, no matter
where this element is stored?

I am aware of the difficulty of this task, since it would involve
transfer of information between different processors.

Thanking you in advance,
