Hi guys, I will try your suggestions and if those fail I will bite the bullet and go to the Apple store. Thanks so much for the help. Winzip

Hi pentode and jmgalvin, I've done those things - and still can't go to the internet on the Mac. I have called my ISP provider and they are unable to help either. The thing is, my warranty on the Mac mini has expired and I just want to try a few more things before I go to a Mac store and have...

Hi pentode, No, I have not moved the Mac. When I log on to the router, I see that DHCP is enabled. I have plugged in the ethernet cable into the Mac and still could not go to the internet that is why I tried fiddling with the various setup dialogs on the Mac (airport, ethernet) but still to...

Hi, I have a DSL modem connected to a Linksys N ultra router that allows internet sharing among my various systems: I have 2 desktop PCs hardwired to the router, a PC laptop that connects wirelessly and a Mac Mini that used to be able to connect wirelessly also. But lately I have not been able...

with reference to 'gotcha' about a jobstep that fails where a (+1) generation is referenced, it is not always true that when you restart, the (+1) has already turned into a (0) generation... note that certain catalog maintenance services such as CA11 can 'roll back' GDGs so that you don't have...

Great ideas guys! I appreciate the tips and support! Winzip

Thanks for the quick responses. They sound reasonable - may not be worth making this thing run when it will be suspect anyway... you're right - I wouldn't want to keep anything in it. If I buy let's say a 30 or 40 GB Maxtor drive, can I make it my primary hard drive? Thanks again! Winzip

Hi! I just received an HP PC that I know used to run Windows ME. The person who gave it to me said the hard drive had a lot of bad sector problems and she tried to wipe it out (the hard drive) and overwrite it with Windows 98 SE. Now the PC won't start - saying there's no OS found on the hard...

Hi everyone, Booting from the Win98 CD didn't work so I downloaded a Win98 bootdisk from a website. It boots with the option of having a CD-ROM drive, and from there, I ran the setup program. It worked OK, now I have Windows 98 SE on my refurbished laptop. Thanks for all the tips - I really...

Thanks everybody! I will try your suggestions today and let you know the results. winzip

I just bought a refurbished laptop; the hard drive is empty except for the COMMAND.COM file and when I boot, it goes to the command prompt and displays on the top that the system is Windows 95. Right now I don't think it recognizes the CD-ROM drive, but I'm sure with the right boot disk I can...

Wow! I don't think I've been away that long; but things sure have become exciting around here... Are we fighting the crusades all over again? Don't let these sidebars scare you, Scurf... these are a very helpful and knowledgeable bunch.

Rusty, I was at first hesitant to respond to this post because my experience with MicroFocus was over two lifetimes ago. Anyway, I think I will agree with Tom's initial reaction to your query in that you probably do not need pointers in this case. And then I will agree with Tom again: give us...

i know how you feel, chiqid. it can be confusing even with help. note that what you've received so far in terms of responses to your query all say the same thing. look at it this way (and let us use your terms): first thing to remember: you decide on a message format then, side A has a...

Hi! neo5gen is right. it is not enough that you can send/receive messages from one platform to the other. what you need is a program that will process the message that was received in whatever manner you choose; like writing it out to a file then FTPing it. your processing program can be any...

Hi! Can you give a little more detail of your setup? When you say you have received data from the 'other side' what are the sides? How do you process the message? Do you just attempt to 'send' the message to a TXT file?

Hi! FWIW, here's a description of 2018: Connection handle not valid. The connection handle Hconn is not valid. This reason also occurs if the parameter pointer is not valid, or (for the MQCONN or MQCONNX call)...

Couch, you are doing stuff you don't need to do. if all you need to do is turn your packed decimals into display numerics, try the following example: 01 PACKED-FIELDS. 03 PF-BANK PIC S999 COMP-3. 03 PF-APPLICATION PIC S9 COMP-3. 03 PF-ACCOUNT PIC S9(8)...

Hey Crox, Thanks! I think we'll make a good tag team. Happy New Year! winzip

bhl, if all you need is to find out is if there is an asterisk anywhere in this 50-character field, you can use the cobol verb INSPECT - syntax: INSPECT 50-char-field-name TALLYING numeric-field-name FOR ALL '*' if the asterisk is present, your numeric-field-name will contain a non-zero value...
