Is the GNAT Ada 95 compiler > already on the VAX or do I have to buy and install it? You have to install it. The GNU Ada project [1] has got one - but it is horribly out-dated. That does not mean there is no newer version: At work I have the very latest wavefront GNAT/Pro (Ada 2005) for OpenVMS available :-). Don't ask: There is that gentelmen agreement not to redistribute GNAT/Pro and I do like my job.
