Suddenly, getting error: App failed to start because DLL not found.

I've been working with a Fortran app which calls a Fortran DLL. All was going well i.e.the program was able to
run and call the functions in the DLL. Then I started getting the error:
"The application has failed to start because the .dll was not found.
Re-installing the application may fix this problem." This happens as soon as I launch the app. I hadn't modified the properties. I checked the paths and
everything looks fine. I do notice that when I run dumpbin -symbols on theDLL there are No Symbols! This reminds me of the compiler error I had with 11.0. I am running 11.1.038. Is this a known issue? If so how do I get passed it?
Thanks in Advance

I can't think of a compiler error that would cause this, or what error from 11.0 you're thinking of. Perhaps you have something that is corrupting DLLs on your system?

Try rebuilding the DLL.

No luck with rebuilding the DLL even under another project. For expediency I am abandoning the DLL and bringing in the source code files into the application. This workded OK. I'll have to deal with the DLL issue another day. I'm closing this for now.
