Visual Studio 2010 imported CVF project is not a fortran project

[Brian_Murphy]

I have imported many CVF projects, but yesterday I imported a project that is showing up in Visual Studio as a C project instead of a fortran project.  The import did produce a .vcxproj and .vfproj files along with the .sln file.  The project property pages are for C instead of fortran.  What did I do wrong?  Should I start over?

Converting CVF projects is a two-step process. You first open the .dsw in the newer VS which creates C++ projects, and then use Extract Compaq Visual Fortran Project Items. Did you forget the second step?

I'm pretty sure I did that.  That item is not in the right click menu anymore.  At what point does it stop appearing?

Anyhow, in the meantime I double clicked the vfproj file and it opened in visual studio.  That did appear as a proper fortran project.  I closed visual studio.  I double clicked the .sln file again, and now it appears as a proper fortran project.  So I will continue with what I've got, but if I run into any more trouble I will start over.

I don't know what was going on.  Can having multiple VS instances running at once make weird things happen?

I haven't encountered issues with multiple VS instances running.
