converting CVF resource files to Intel

[robberman]

I am trying to convert a Compaq VF program with resource files, using Intel VF with Visual Studio shell. A few questions:
1. where can I get a program to unzip the resedit program; I tried winzip but it didn't work
2. is there another version of Visual Studio that I can download without buying that will allow me to convert resource files?
3. If not,once I get Resedit to work, how do I add the resource files to my Intel project?

Thanks very much!

Use 7-Zip to unpack. Do the resource files really need "converting"?

You would add the .rc and .h to the project as files and then set up a custom build action on the .h to run deftofd on it as explained in the Fortran documentation on using dialogs.

Thanks for your answer.

I've tried to open my rc file with resedit, but I get an error and it stops.

Is there a different Vis Studio shell that will let me compile with the existing Compaq VF rc files?

Any other alternatives?

Thanks.

You can download a 90-day trial of Visual Studio 2010, do your editing and save the .rc file. But I have never had a problem with using .rc files from CVF. Can you attach the one that's having problems?

Rob,

Thanks for attaching your project. You've moved past the .rc problem and are now getting an internal compiler error. This is fixed in the current release, 12.0 Update 2, so please install that. You will find that the compiler complains about a character length mismatch, which you need to fix.

Great. Thanks very much for your help, Steve!!
