How can I put my old version of a Contab program made in Cobol Language, work width Windows 98 SE.
Is true that I have to get runcobol.exe? Where can I get it?
Thanks Nikolai.
 
Nikolai,

i'm not quite sure that i fully understand your question and i have no experience with COBOL in a Windows 98 environment, but i reckon that if you have the source code, you should recompile it using a compiler fit for your target environment. That should give you an executable program you can run.
Be aware of conversion problems, though, because sadly one COBOL isn't exactly like the other. But of course, you can again post possible problems on this forum !

Good luck !
 
It seems that your program runs under RM/COBOL v2-3....
it is possible to get the File "RUNCOBOL.EXE" and just copy
it in the directory where you have the Executable file. even
under windows this will work because it's a MSDOS command.
