Win XP and Rebuild.exe in MF Cobol 1

[MzKitty]

We are using an older version of MF Cobol (v.3.2.5.0) and have not had any problems running file reorganizations with the rebuild.exe program, but now that we have PC's running with Win XP, the rebuild is not working. Below is a sample of my code. Is the syntax different for the switches in XP? We are using '/'.

ECHO ***********************
ECHO * REORGANIZE AGGRPTFI *
ECHO ***********************
D:
CD\MCC-MF
REBUILD D:\MCC-DATA\MOLINE\AGGRPTFI,D:\MCC-DATA\MOLINE\AGGRPTFX /I /V
ECHO **************************************************
ECHO * REORGANIZE COMPLETE - CHECK FOR ERROR MESSAGES *
ECHO **************************************************
PAUSE
DEL D:\MCC-DATA\MOLINE\AGGRPTFI.*
RENAME D:\MCC-DATA\MOLINE\AGGRPTFX AGGRPTFI
RENAME D:\MCC-DATA\MOLINE\AGGRPTFX.IDX AGGRPTFI.IDX

Thanks Cathy

Cathy -

What do you mean by "the rebuild is not working"? Do you receive error messages?

Regards.

We're not getting any error message. It just bypasses the rebuild line and drops down to the delete on the next line and deletes the file.

Sorry about that Glenn. The operator 300 miles away did not tell me that there was an error message. We just recreated it on a new PC. The error was 9/105 - memory allocation problem. It's pointing at a problem with the environment.

Thanks
Cathy

Try modifying the bat file and the indexexed files location to run it on the C: drive.

Clive,
I did modify the bat file. I added XM in front of the rebuild statement and the file ran perfectly. Thanks for everyone's help.
