I recently upgraded to MS-Fortran 5.1, which can generate Windows
programs. 

I wish to associate the input files for my Fortran simulation with 
the Windows .EXE file, AND get the input filename into the 
simulation for character manipulation to generate corresponding 
output filenames. 

Eg, associate *.INP with SIMULATE.EXE. Now I want to be able to
double-click on XYZ.INP (in FileManager) to run SIMULATE, opening
XYZ.INP as input and generating XYZ.OUT for output. 

My local Microsoft support provided information about accessing
the PSP or PDB at the start of the app, and a Windows call:
GetCurrentPDB(). Before looking into something that seems rather
complex to me, has anyone solved this one already?
