1. Add the file CRT0DAT.OBJ to your current directory. This file is
located on the enclosed HF0304 disk in the \FORT500\F50\DOS
directory (or the \FORT500\F50\OS2 directory, if you are using
FORTRAN with OS/2).
located on the enclosed HF0304 disk in the \FORT500\F50 directory.
follows:
FILES=50
Add this line to your CONFIG.SYS file if the line does not exist.
Reboot the machine so the new FILES= statement takes effect.
statement
LINK /NOE <QUUX.OBJ> + UNIT.OBJ + CRT0DAT.OBJ;
where <QUUX.OBJ> is the FORTRAN object code.
object modules in the run-time library <libraryname> as follows:
LIB <libraryname> -+UNIT.OBJ -+CRT0DAT.OBJ;

object modules in the run-time library <libraryname> as follows:

The document FILEHAND.DOC, contained on the Microsoft FORTRAN version 5.1 distribution Disk 5, describes where to find the object modules on the distribution disks to increase the number of file handles to 64 for both DOS and OS/2. The document also describes the process of linking these object modules with the executable file.
The files CRT0DATD.OBJ and CRT0DATL.OBJ, shipped with Microsoft FORTRAN version 5.1, may generate an L2029, L2044, or L2025 error during link time when attempting to increase the number of file handles to 64 for a Windows executable file. The files CRT0DATD.OBJ and CRT0DATL.OBJ on the enclosed HF0304 disk are corrections for the object modules shipped with Microsoft FORTRAN 5.1.
1. Add the files CRT0DATL.OBJ and CRT0DATD.OBJ to your current
directory. These files are located on the enclosed HF0304 disk in
the \FORT510 directory.

Add this line to your CONFIG.SYS file if the line does not exist.
Reboot the machine so the new FILES= statement takes effect.
Windows executable file using the following statement
LINK /NOE <QUUX.OBJ> + UNIT.OBJ + CRT0DATL.OBJ;
where <QUUX.OBJ> is the FORTRAN object code. Use CRT0DATD.OBJ in
place of CRT0DATL.OBJ to create a Windows DLL.
object modules in the run-time library as follows:
a. To change the Windows run-time library, rename CRT0DATL.OBJ to
CRT0DAT.OBJ and type:
LIB LLIBFEW.LIB -+UNIT.OBJ -+CRT0DAT.OBJ;
b. To change the Windows dynamic-linked library, rename
CRT0DATD.OBJ to CRT0DAT.OBJ and type:
LIB LDLLFEW.LIB -+UNIT.OBJ -+CRT0DAT.OBJ;
