There's a great deal of Fortran programming being done today -- the
comp.lang.fortran newsgroup is very active. You're sure to be able to
get some help with the Fortran there. Fortran has been standardized for
a long time, and modern compilers handle legacy code, so it shouldn't be
difficult to recompile the Fortran code with a modern compiler (e.g.,
Compaq, Intel, Lahey) either as an EXE or DLL to be run from the GUI of
your choice. That's exactly what EZNEC does with the Fortran-compiled
NEC code.

funny story about that... i just got tasked to dig up the fortran code for a
product my company is just thinking of upgrading to something more modern.
they just finally ran up against windows xp that refuses to run the old dos
extender the fortran was linked with... then it was wrapped with a windows
gui that just ran the old fortran executable in the background. the gui
will probably be more problems to update than the fortran if i can find the
source... it uses visual c++ 1.52 i think, the last of the 16 bit windows
compilers from ms.
