i am looking for a good application to create a GUI for data input for my fortran program.

i also need to have a history of those various input sequences (multiple runs) saved for future reference as well. may be to a spread sheet?
any suggestions?
Yes. wxpython would be good. how about Tcl/Tk or even VTK? Write into a file and let fortran read from it? You could even do that with matlab for instance and write to a spread sheet.
GTK, Qt and Visual Studio (there are Express Editions which are free) are also alternatives.
Matlab and Maxima can also be alternatives.
But if it is a Fortran programme, why not just read from a plain text file?

It's more a matter of personal taste, I think. I, for example, would do it in plain text (I'm not a GUI lover).
i use plan text too..for ansys
