    thanks for the note.
    the GUI, depending on which parameters the user activate, will save different contents in the 'text file'. Then, FORTRAN which should read the 'text file', has several "if statement". Do you suggest to use a better way of transferring the 'input data' from GUI to FORTRAN? maybe using XML??

    No. As they say, if it isn't broken, don't fix it. What I was suggesting is, that if you can run the FORTRAN program as a sub-process from the GUI and then display the results in the GUI when the computation is finished, the user will think that he is directly controlling the computation.

    I do not know how you run your FORTRAN program now. It sounds like it is started manually from the command line. With Qt, you can run this program from inside your GUI (maybe in response to the user clicking "Run" ) and avoid using the command prompt at all.
