porting from Compaq Visual Fortran to intel Visual Fortran

[moghaddam]

Hi,

When I am trying to port my Compaq Visual Fortran project (*.dsw) into Intel Visual Fortran using Microsoft Visual Studio, I get this message:

The project file (*.dsp) has been corrupted and can not be opened.

I was wondering if anyone has encountered this before and has any solution for it?

Regards,
Sarvin

I've found it easier to just start from scratch with a new IVF project.

i've had very few issues converting many, many projects.
does the CVF project function properly in CVF?
Are you using v6.6?
What version of Visual Studio are you using?
could it be related to a change in visual studio?
also, once imported there is an additional step to get the Fortran calls (it's been a while since i converted)
you might post up the CVF project and Steve, I and/or others may be able to open it in CVF to see maybe what's going on.

I have seen this issue rarely - it's not worth the effort to try to figure out the cause. As Linda says, just create a new project. The CVF converter adds options that may be useful to CVF programs but see if you can do without them first - these are /iface:cvf and /Qsave.
