The short answer is "You can't". Octave is not a Fortran compiler. And 
Octave doesn't have a GUI either. I'm guessing you're running some 
front-end with a Tools|Compile menu option. *shrugs* Can't help you there.

The long answer is: Octave includes a tool (mkoctfile) that can run a 
Fortran compiler for you.

If you want to compile Fortran code and call it from Octave, check out 
Octave extensions (.oct files).

Maybe this Wiki page could help:
