VFRUN66BI

[jchwst]

I have developed an Excel spreadsheet with Visual Basic control which calls an external Fortran program. I developed it on Windows XP with Visual Fortran. I have successfully transported it, with the help of the VFRUN66BI install kit, to other XP systems which do not haveVisual Fortran installed. However, I am currently failing in an attempt to carry out the same procedure on systems with either Windows 98 or Windows ME. Is there another install kit to use for these other OSs?

Nope. One size fits all. What kind of problem are you having?

[jchwst]

"Compile Error" "Can't find project or library" - but not on the XP system.

I am trying to do this remotely. The computers I'm trying to set the spreadsheet up on are on a ship at sea. I am reconsidering that maybe I have a VBA error rather than a fortran error based on the message. Do earlier versions of Excel have all the references that Excel 2000 has? I'll have to try and find out what version of Excel they are running. Any suggestions?

[Steven_L_Intel1]

The problem you are having is unrelated to the CVF run-time library. Sorry I can't help further.

[jchwst]

Now they are getting the error "Run-time errorpatch/file access error".

[Steven_L_Intel1]

I've never seen that error before - what are they doing when they get it?

[jchwst]

They are clicking on a control button which runs some VBA code and calls an external Visual Fortran dll executable. I may still be dealing with a VBA problem and if I am I am sorry for wasting your time. The confusion is that the spreadsheet runs on a laptop they have with XP and it will not run on comupters they have with ME and 98.

Ok - that is something in VBA and has nothing to do with CVF.
