I had some similar problems with runnning the control3 example using nmfe5.bat even I used the FORTRAN COMMAND PROMPT of Compaq Visual Fortran 6.1 (the command prompt sets the environment for the DF command using DFVARS.BAT).
I ended up successfully by adding a line within the compile-block to the nmfe5.bat file
...
:compile
if exist link copy link link.lnk <===== NEW LINE I ENTERED !!!
%f% %op% /Fenonmem %s% @link.lnk %n% %u% > %f%.txt
...
It seemed that Windows NT missed to have or hided the '.LNK'-extension to the LINK-File that is created automatically while executing nmfe5.bat; NT Explorer only shows LINK as the filename and LNK-file as the file-type.
In fact I already had observed problems with running VBA-macros using file-extensions as qualifiers and having set the view-options to miss extensions of known files inside NT-Explorer; I expect something similar to happen with the .LNK file extension since links may be treated differently from ordinary files.
Sincerely,
Alexander Kraus
