    PowerCobol form all jumbled up

    What is the ScaleMode property on the Coordinates tab of the form and controls set to? We've had trouble when this is set to pixels vs 1/20th points, particularly on laptops that have wide screens.

    WINSOCK WITH POWERCOBOL

    veneto, Good luck with this. I had a post out here about 6 weeks ago in the Fujitsu forum (which doesn't seem to exist anymore). I was having much the same problems using the winsock control in PowerCOBOL. Nobody really could help me. The same app written in VB works fine. Fujitsu tech...

    Will FJ Net COBOL for Win read MicroFocus indexed files

    Tony, We have done what you want to do. After many months of struggling with it we figured it out. We had even contacted Fujitsu tech support and they said it couldn't be done although their documentation hinted it could be done. The key is using (and having access to) the Micro Focus file...

    PowerCOBOL and MS Winsock Control

    I think we are talking about 2 different ways to do Winsock. I am actually using the ActiveX Winsock Control not calling the Winsock API directly.

    PowerCOBOL and MS Winsock Control

    Actually I'm just trying to send strings using the SendData and GetData methods of the control. I too thought it could be a data type issue. Could there be an issue with what COBOL and VB consider a string? Strangely enough I always get twice as many characters as I send. Thanks for your input.

    PowerCOBOL and MS Winsock Control

    Has anyone had any luck using the Microsoft Winsock Control 6.0 in PowerCOBOL? I have written client and server applications to send strings to each other. The data is sent and the events all seem to fire fine but the data I receive is just garbage. The same program written in VB works fine...

    Fj PGM can execute a Microfocus PGM ?

    The Micro Focus program needs to have the Micro Focus runtime avaiable. You can do this 2 ways. The shared runtime is not contained in the .exe and the runtime files must be in your path and you need a COBDIR environment variable set to the location of the runtime. This is how we do it here...

    Fj PGM can execute a Microfocus PGM ?

    You can do this using the "ExecuteSync" or "Execute" method of a form. We used to do this to read MicroFocus files from Fujitsu until we figured out an easier way to do it. Both runtimes need to be available. ExecuteSync wait for the called application to exit before...
