While there are many Python modules in pypi.org, to help you create Excel Spreadsheets from Python, I decided to show a feature in the pandas module that does it nicely, and it also has the added benefit of showing how you can turn a simple LIST statement into an excel spreadsheet.

When I use Import to move my updates from Zena Dev to Zena Prod, I got so many extra updates from Calendars since it was updated often.  How do I exclude the extra updates from Calendars folder?  

What I am trying to accomplish (unsuccessfully so far) is that if the end-user starts the process to generate a report, and they realize it is going to take a long time, I want to provide them a "kill" button.  The kill button would post a message to the report and tell it to stop. What happens with my test                Form 1 – select a report Activates the window with the "kill" button                         Then Actives a form for the user to filter the report data (Form 2)                 Form 2 – select "print" button, activates report                          Cursor spins until the report finishes                          Report finishes and then I can go back to the "kill" windows, but by now it is too late  Once they select the print button … I want them to be able to go to the "kill" button form BUT this is not possible until the report finishes  I understand the logic behind the way it works.  I'm just looking for a "work around" 😊 My early prototype worked, but that's be

Hi facultative code folding in vscode languages is a good productivity thing but not enabled by default for the Rocket mvbasic extension. It allows you to hide unimportant code in the editor not already hidable because of indentation. The language-configuration.json configuration file allows for a folding region to be added/enabled. This is the json snippet I manually edit into the client and server config files. "folding": { "offSide": true, "markers": { "start": "^\\\\s*!!\\\\s*#region", "end": "^\\\\s*!!\\\\s*#endregion" } } Could we get default folding markers added please. ------------------------------Stuart BoydellAU------------------------------

Hi, Is it possible to connect to MQ using LDAP in Unidata 8.2.4. if not, is there any work around to connect and post messages? We are upgrading our IBM MQ version to 9.3 so we are changing the authentication to LDAP CSP and send username and password for authentication. Is there a way for Unidata to accommodate these changes? Any reference to documentation or any inputs will be greatly appreciated. More simple question should be can we use MQCONNX to connect to MQ in Unidata? Regards, Unidata Enthusiast

Hi everyone, With Rocket ACUCOBOL extend 11 now available, our team is already working on the next set of updates and improvements. As we plan future enhancements for ACUCOBOL products, it's a great opportunity to reflect on how COBOL (and ACUCOBOL) continue to successfully support critical systems around the world. Here are five reasons why COBOL remains ideal for enterprise-grade applications. Designed for business and built to last COBOL was purpose-built for high-volume data processing, complex reporting, and precise financial calculations. Every day, COBOL applications process nearly 200 times more transactions than all Google and YouTube searches combined. High performance and rock-solid reliability have always been hallmarks of COBOL systems. High portability: it runs just about anywhere COBOL applications written decades ago still operate seamlessly on today's platforms, from mainframes to the multicloud. Thanks to COBOL's portability, mission-critical applications have ada

Hi everyone, Today, we want to share MAIF's modernization story with you. MAIF, a major Spanish insurance company, successfully modernized its IT ecosystem without interrupting critical operations while boosting efficiency through innovative tools and processes. Here's how Rocket Visual COBOL made it possible: Company Founded in 1934, MAIF showcases a unique mutual insurance model where each of its 4.2 million members are both an insurer and insured. Renowned for their innovation and unwavering social commitment, MAIF continuously evolves to meet members' needs while fostering trust and responsibility. Challenge MAIF needed to replace the mainframe with modern, scalable infrastructure to improve processing, enable 24/7 availability, and enhance self-service without disrupting operations. Faced with an aging mainframe at end-of-life, MAIF sought a sustainable architecture to support seamless migration while modernizing their system. The goals were to optimize performance, ensure continu

I'm working on connecting a Visual COBOL application using an ODBC driver, and we want the driver to recognize that the request is specifically coming from a Visual COBOL program. Is there any standard way to achieve this? For example, does Visual COBOL use any common executable file that the driver can detect to identify the source of the call? Or is there any recommended way for the driver to detect that the request is coming from Visual COBOL?------------------------------Divya KoduriEngineerUnisys CorporationTenali IN------------------------------
