I have fortran compiler and visual fortran installed but when i load an .f90 archive it doesn't give me the chance to compile it and run it. I know it's an easy question! Thanks for answering

See if this tutorial helps. A .f90 file is not an "archive", it's a Fortran source file. If you are using Visual Studio, you would create a new Fortran Console Application project, add your source file to it, build the project (or Solution) and then run it.

You can also build and run from the command line.

Thank you very much for your advice. Could you tell me how to compile with the openmp option??
thanks again

If you are using the command line, add the option /Qopenmp . If you are using Visual Studio, select the project property Fortran > Language and set Process OpenMP Directives to "Generate Parallel Code".

OpenMP is not really a "newbie" topic - are you sure that's what you want?
