I use the VS with the intel 9.0 fortran compiler, but with the NMake or the 
MinGW Makefile generator.  Building and debugging works fine when using a 
C/C++ - Makefile project.

The VS Studio-X,x generators don't work for fortran, AFAIK.  

CMake has a extra source file for every VS version it supports.  I guess the 
same would be necessary for every intel fortran compiler release.  However I 
never took a close look at the VS realted sources.  

Brad or Bill, can you comment on this?


IMHO it's not worth putting work into this, because the Makefile generators 
work fine.  At our research group we're working with
    Most: Windows - Visual Studio Makefile Project
    Often: Linux - Eclipse + CDT + photran - Makefile Project
    Sometimes: Solaris - just command line
without notable problems.
