I'm trying to use Samples>Mixed languages>Excel. When I recompile using build.dat, the Excel sample no longer works (error 53). Can you provide any help?
As it says in the Excel file, you have to edit the macro to specify the correct path to the DLL. If you don't, it will try to find it in the folder excel.exe is in. However, I noticed an error in the instructions - use ALT-F11, not ALT-SHIFT-F11.
I compile the fortran code using 1) visual Studio IDE and 2) also with the build.dat file. The excel macro works with the compilation with visula studio but not with the build.dat file. Can you tell me why?
The build.bat file is really there for testing the build process. In some cases it doesn't build non-Fortran code. In this case it should work, though, as long as you edit the macro to correctly locate the path to the DLL.
