Integration with Visual Basic

29 Nov 2010 8:32 #7173

I am upgrading an old application in which the user interface is written in Visual Basic (vb.net). The VB program then runs (via a dos batch file) a separate Fortran program to carry out the number crunching. Is it possible to integrate the Fortran Code into the VB application and if so can anyone provide an example. Any other pointers to reference material would also be very welcome.

We have a user contributed example which interfaces VB and Fortran. I'll try and find out if we can send it to other users.

You will find information on how to link Win32 VB with FTN95 in the Knowledge Base article https://forums.silverfrost.com/Forum/Topic/133 and also in the FTN95 help file.

The Visual ClearWin approach to VB .NET can also be found in the help file under .NET Platform->Visual ClearWin.

There is also a set of .NET sample programs that can be found in
