Help me compile existing files wrote in CVF using IVF

[clsnow]

I wrote a big code in Compaq Visual Fortran before. Now I do not have CVF any more and bought a new Intel Visual Fortran. I have difficulties in running my code in the new IVF.

When using CVF, what I do for programming is to open a .f file, then edit it. when finish, click build, then it will generate a project and generate files like .dsw, .dsp, etc. Now the IVF cannot open my old .dsw file. so I decide open the old .f files and re-compile it. but if I open the .f file, there is no build options in the menu bar, so I cannot compile the .f files like CVF. The build menu bar only appears when a project is open.

then I tried open a new project, but it always forces me to choose a template .f file. But i need not these template files.

I also tried File->New->project from existing code files.. then error message coming up "class not registered. Looking for object with CLSID {...loads of numbers here...}".

Could anybody help me what should I do?

Create a new project and select "Empty Project". Once the project opens, right click on Source Files and select Add Existing File to add your .f file. Now you can build.

Unfortunately, the "New project from existing files" is a Microsoft C++ only feature".
