1263.0. "Is visual fortran5.0 campatible with VC++4.0 environment?" by HYDRA::MODI () Wed Apr 16 1997 16:32

    Can Visual Fortran for Intel coexist with VC++ V4.0 on the same system?
    I understand that Visual Fortran shares the developer studio bits that
    gets installed with VC++ installation. Hence the concerns about the 
    compatibility. 
    
    Thanks,

1263.1QUARK::LIONELFree advice is worth every centWed Apr 16 1997 17:063
    No.  You must use VC++ 5.0 with DVF.

1263.2Possible, but not recommended...TLE::EKLUNDAlways smiling on the inside!Wed Apr 16 1997 17:5722
   While it is certainly best to have both Visual Fortran and
   Visual C++ both at version 5.0, you can "get by" with version 4.0
   of Visual C++ provided you are primarily interested in NOT
   combining them in a project.  You need to be careful to heed
   the following advice, which is the SAME advice that is offered
   if you are trying to install Visual Fortran 5.0 on the same
   system as Microsoft Powerstation Fortran V4.0.
                   

 o Do not install Visual Fortran 5.0 in the same directory as Microsoft
   Visual C++ 4.0.  Installing Visual Fortran 5.0 on top of 
   Microsoft Visual C++ 4.0 will render the 4.0 tools unusable. 
   Install Visual Fortran 5.0 into a directory separate from your 
   Microsoft Visual C++ 4.0 installation.  Visual Fortran 5.0 
   can co-exist with a 4.0 installation, as long as both versions reside
   in different directories.      


   Cheers!
