Hello Sarah, I'm afraid we don't provide official netcdf-fortran support for modern Visual Studio installs, yet (although we are hoping to have that soon). The installers available from our webpage contain the netcdf-c libraries, without fortran support. What you have described sounds correct, although the precompiled netcdf-c libraries were built using MSVC 2010; I do not know for sure that they are compatible with MSVC 2013. It may also be the case that the compiler cannot find the dependencies distributed with the netcdf-c install; when you ran the installer, you will find a folder labeled 'deps' in the same location as the other netcdf files. Inside this folder are various .dll/.lib files which netcdf-c is dependent upon. You may need to specify this directory under Linker: General: Additional Library directories. I hope this helps, -Ward > Hello, > > I have a very basic question about how to install NetCDF for use with Fortran > in Visual Studio 2013.
