what version of Digital Fortran ?
what version of Visual C++ ?
look under "Help - About Developer Studio"

you dont need to build the libraries if you use the prebuilt binaries in 
netcdf-3.5-beta5.win32.bin.zip.

adding to include and lib directories should have worked.
you should be able to use netdf from Digital Fortran.
what error are you seeing?

you have to download the netcdf source seperately.
but as i said, you shouldnt have to remake the libraries.
