resource.fd not updated during build

[bcommander]

I recently upgraded from the CVF toIVF-12.1 and VS2008. I'm having troubles rebuilding QWin fortran programs with dialog boxes. I've discovered that the 'resource.fd' file is not being updated. I manually recreated the file from the 'resource.h' header file, which solved the problem but its a bit of a pain. Apparently there isutility calleddeftofd.exe that converts 'resource.h' to 'resource.fd' and I assume it should be called during the build process. Can anyone help me implement this in my build configuration? I'm not sure where it should go or the syntax. Thanks, Brett

a. Add Resource.h to your project using File>Add Existing Item....
b. Select the Resource.h file in the Solution View and the select View>Property Pages from the main menu
bar.
c. Set the Command Line option to use the deftofd tool by entering:
deftofd resource.h resource.fd
(For more information on the deftofd tool, see The Include (.FD and .H) Files.)
d. Set the Description option to Generating Fortran include file...
e. Set the Outputs option to resource.fd.
f. Click OK.
