Dear Jo
This is absolute guess work for me but...
I would think that there would be no relationship at all between the
MapInfo message window and your Fortran compilers WRITE (*). Could you
add a small bit of code to your DLL that creates its own output window?
I would think this is a better course of action. Another course of
action might be to open a file and change the writes to WRITE(6,) or
whatever the file channel is.
If the first course of action works then because DLL calls are "In
Process" then using API calls MapBasic could still size and position the
new "output" window that the fortran code might create.
Out of interest which Fortran compiler are you using and how easy was it
to change from an EXE app to a DLL? Just think of all the Fortran code
out that there that might be reusable!
Good luck,
Bob
