Anyone,

I have tons of source code written in Fort ran 77 (DEC Alpha) and I would like to compile and run it on the new Compaq Visual Fort ran version 6.5. Can this be done?

Yes, probably. If the code uses OS-specific extensions, such as OpenVMS system services or indexed-organization files, you may have some additional work to do, but a normal program will port easily. Let us know (at vf-support@compaq.com) if you run into any problems.

I recently compiled fortran 77 code from a mainframe using CVF. There's a lot to watch out for, especially since the code was probably written a while ago. If you run into any specific problems, I probably had them too (some were quite irratating). I'll share any personnal experiance you may need.
