Fortran command prompt window & function debug for GUI

[yysome]

Thereare my native questions about VCF.

1)I want to using the DF command. Where can I find theFortran command prompt window?

2) I am developing the graphic user interface(GUI). When I use step intoto debug a function from Mainwin, the program seems already execute completely, And I can not debug anymore. How can I solve this problem?

Thanks a lot!!

I think you mean CVF :)

The DF command is issued from a standard command
prompt window invoked from the "CMD" icon or by
running cmd.exe (or command.exe).

According to the CVF supplied instruction, you need
to first run the "C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual
StudioDF98BINDFVARS.BAT" which will change your
PATH and other environment variables to allow the DF
(and f77,f90) commands to work.

If you will be doing this often, you may want to
create a separate copy of the command prompt shortcut
to automatically invoke dfvars.bat when it starts up
by entering it into its properties.

There's an easier way. Start..Programs..Compaq Visual Fortran 6..Fortran Command Prompt. This is discussed in the documentation. It handles the environment setup automatically.
