Problem using Fortran Module Wizard

I'm using Visuall Studio 2008 and IVF 11.0.074. I tried to use the Fortran Module Wizard but it didn't work. After selecting a .NET dll an pressing continue following error message was displayed:

Could not run the TLBEXP utility to create a Type Library from the Assembly

I made a search for tlbexp.exe in the folders Program Files and Program Files(x86) (I'm using Vista 64) and tlbexp.exe was not found. So I installed Mircosort .NET SDK. Now tlbexp.exe exists and works fine when I use it from the command line but the Module Wizard still displays the same Message even though I added the path to tlbexp.exe to my PATH Variable (and logged off and on again).

Searching for modwiz.exe in the folders Program Files and Program Files (x86) showed that modwiz.exe does not exist so I ran setup.exe (w_cprof_p_11.0.074_novsppe.exe) once again but without success. modwiz.exe still does not exist so I don't think uninstalling and reinstalling will help. What can I do?

Modwiz.exe will be in the Common7ToolsBin subfolder of your Visual Studio install. But I don't see any evidence that it being missing (or not) is relevant to this error.

TLBEXP.EXE is in the Platform SDK which should have been installed as part of Visual Studio 2008 - in the C:Program FilesMicrosoft SDKsWindowsv6.0Abin folder or something like that.

tlbexp.exe is in C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft.NETSDKv2.0Bin or C:Program FilesMicrosoft.NETSDKv2.0Bin.
Prior to the Installation of .NET SDK the only folder I had under c:Proram Files (x86)Microsoft.NetSDK was Compact Framework. The subfolder v2.0 was added later by my installation of the .NET SDK.

I found ModWiz.exe in C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0Common7Toolsbin (I think I will never learn to handle this crazy vista file search!) Has this path to be in the PATH Environment-Variable?

ModWiz is run only from within Visual Studio. You do not need to add anything to PATH for it. Besides, it IS running for you.

You should not have to install any separate SDKs, especially not the .NET SDK. You could install the Windows SDK if you wanted to, but VS2008 installs what is needed. I wonder if you somehow omitted the Windows SDK from your VS2008 install.

Perhaps this explains my problems:
