| 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!
