Hi Bill, with Microfocus try this: call "SYSTEM" using your-script. The string "your-script" should be terminated with low-value. Tip: have a look at the library routines - there are a lot of useful things. Perhaps there's something which you can do directly with these...

Hi ramgarra, have a look at your post in 'cobol general discussion': thread209-514731

Sandie, what are you missing? Online documentation: Net Express Bookshelf, chapter Database Access Examples are in the folder NetExpress\Base\DEMO\ODBCESQL Ever tried the OpenESQL Assistant in Net Express, Tools? Independent from this, i agree with you - it's a hard job if you never worked with...

Hi ramgarra, MicroFocus has a difference between a logical and a physical cancel. The standard behaviour is a logical cancel: the canceled program stays in memory and so the following calls are much faster, but the programs data is initialized again. During a physical cancel the program is...

Hi Don, with Microfocus Cobol you really can access databases with SQL. The simplest way is to use embedded SQL. There are different solutions to do this and it depends on which Microfocus product you use. You said you believe it is Cobol 4.1. If so it must be the OCDS 4.1 - that's Object Cobol...

Hi Marcos, found your name in the microfocus forum :-) Your message sounds a bit strange. I never had any problems with program names longer than 6, 8 or even more characters. Unfortunately i have no experience with the Oracle or another precompiler - i'm using OpenESQL. You said "Cobol...

Hi Kathy, i can't believe that :-) It doesn't matter whether your code is in a .dll format or not. You say it doesn't generate a file-status. Have you declared and checked a file-status field? Is it "00" after open input? Is your "0-record-file" an empty file that really...

There's an example at Microfocus supportline the other way around, delphi calling cobol. Very primitive, but perhaps it helps you to understand the basics. Try this link: http://supportline.microfocus.com/ Click "Self-Service", "Net Express Examples $ Utilities&quot...

I agree with RayatBiSaver. Why? In former times i also used paragraph numbering schemes, because this structure was told me by teachers and the companies in my region used this structure of code. But times are changing and so the styles of programming. The old way was based on monster programs...

I tried SOAP toolkit 3.0 with the same problem. You don't need visual studio. Here's the link to download the missing "mscomct2.ocx": http://activex.microsoft.com/controls/vb6/MSCOMCT2.CAB I found this information in the Microsoft Knowledge Base.

Hi Truus, i think "display $$ ..." doesn't work, because $$ is a special environment value inside the unix shell. Perhaps it is enough for you to start your program with the PID of the starting shell - something like this: cobrun yourprog $$ "accept ws-pid from...
