I've(inherited) a DLL that's built using Fortran(I was told that it's built using Fortran).
When I tried to reference it in a .NET project it(VS.NET) gives an error message saying that "It's not a valid COM component".

Is there any way to use(call) this DLL from a .NET Application ?

Thanks a lot for any pointers or help

If it is a standard DLL that exports methods then you should be able to use
DllImport to get to anything you would need.
