Reading an array from a text file into fortran

Hi, I have what I hope is a simple question

in fortran 95 is there a simple way to read in data of the following form
into an array?

N 2
M 4

1.2 3.4 5.6 7.8
9.0 2.3 6.5 8.7

Ideally I'd like to read in N, M (I can do that) allocate an array such
that it has dimensions a(N,M) and then read in the values below into
the array like

a(1,1) a(1,2) a(1,3) a(1,4)
a(2,1) a(2,2) a(2,3) a(2,4)

I can't see how best to set up a read statement to fill in the array when
I have to read in the value of M at run time.

Any thoughts

Thanks

Glyn
