Can Intel Fortran IMSL 32bit be used with Windows 7 64 bit?

[russell__keith]

Hi all,

Apologies if this is a simple question - we bought 32bit IMSL a couple of years ago, but now have most of our PCs running Windows 64 bit.

I'm setting up a PC for one of our researchers, and when we try testing IMSL using one of his Fortran programs, we get a fatal linker error -

"fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file ‘imsl_dll.lib’."  Since the file is there, and its directory is in the $PATH and also (under Visual Studio) in configuration properties, Linker, General, Additional Library directories, it sounds like it may be complaining about trying to use the 32bit version of that library. Is there a way to make it work, for example, by changing the compatibility settings, or does the error mean I need to fork out for Fortran IMSL 64bit as well?

Thanks in advance,

Keith Russell
