Fortran master & C# Window slave ?

I am developing a more complex graphical Window-2000 product, consisting of an input tree on a leftpanel and several plot-areas on the right, and with tabs below for additional plotarea's on successive tab-panels.

I started with some nice Fortran examples from Lawrence 'CVF - a guide to creating windows applications' (which I recommended on Amazon).
But I have to admit, C++ and even better C# are more suited for implementing fast and complete Window functionality.

However, the Fortran part is so complex and demanding, that it preferrely should acts as a master, and calling C# Windowing modules in slave mode.

Doing the whole job in C# is not an option. Most calculations and plots are interdepended within the calculation part of the Fortran code. Furthermore the massive (multiprocessor) calculations would kill any other platform than Fortran.

Not the graphical part but the Window programming is my problem. Especially my knowledge of C# and C#-Fortran communication is .LE. medium, so I rather put my question on the Fortran forum before I start digging in the wrong direction;

Who has examples, suggestions or products dealing with my Fortran Master - C# Window Slave approach ?
Working results will be returned to the forum.
