I have a old application in Net Express 3.1, how can I get it into Visual Cobol 2.3.
I have been working with the WOW Designer v10 for 6 months now and have just gotten this error message. Where do I find this key and how do I correct it?
Hello: Can someone help me and translate these two C # instructions to Cobol? _NuxIO.ValueEnteredEvent = new NuxIO.ValueEnteredEventHandler (OnValueEnteredEvent);Private void OnValueEnteredEvent (object sender, ValueEnteredEventArgs e){If (e.Type == 2) ListBox.Invoke ((MethodInvoker)) => listBox.Items.Add ("IP:" e.IPAddress "RS232:" e.Value)));If (e.Type == 3) ListBox.Invoke ((MethodInvoker)) => listBox.Items.Add ("IP:" e.IPAddress "I8 Activated")));If (e.Type == 4) ListBox.Invoke ((MethodInvoker)) => listBox.Items.Add ("IP:" e.IPAddress "I7 Activated")));} Thanks Alberto Ferraz
Is Visual COBOL PE available for Visual Studio 2017 Community Edition?
Created On: 27 April 2012 Problem: InstantSQL is included with the RM/COBOL Development System v12 , and, it provides ODBC access for your RM/COBOL application. However, we do not provide a "How-To" guide for this product. Resolution: Attached to this Knowledge Base article are an InstantSQL sample program(isqlexample.cbl), and, the InstantSQL help files(isqlhelp.zip). To use the InstantSQL help files, you will need to extract the attached archive, isqlhelp.zip, and, then, open the extracted HTML page, index.htm. The copy books necessary to compile the InstantSQL example program are located in the "InstantSQL" directory of your RM/COBOL installation. You will need to add this location to your RMPATH environment variable in order to compile the program. To execute this sample program, you will need to load the InstantSQL Runtime library (lisql.dll or libisql.so) located in the "InstantSQL" directory of your RM/COBOL installation. For example:&
Hello, I need to make a request, send information in Json and get the returns of this request someone has an example. I found it in C # but this is difficult to translate. To tell you the truth I need to access a payment platform that communication is in Json https://vindi.github.io/api-docs/dist/Translated by Google. Olá, eu preciso fazer uma requisição, enviar informações em Json e pegar os retornos que desta requisição alguem tem um exemplo. Encontrei em c# mas esta difícil de traduzir. Pra falar a verdade preciso acessar uma plataforma de pagamento que a comunicação é em Json vindi.github.io/.../ Traduzido pelo Google.
Hello, i am trying to call my cobol program. Using RunUnit, it works: RunUnit runUnit = new RunUnit(); runUnit.Call("MyProgramm"); Using RuntimeSystem, it doesn't work ("programm not found"): RuntimeSystem.cobcall("MyProgramm", pl); Whats the differnce between RunUnit and RuntimeSystem ?

I'm a software developer and consultant. I have an old client that is running a system developed in RM/COBOL (I did much of the development) that I would like to move to a Linux distro. They are currently running on SCO-Unix (version 5.something) using RM-COBOL-85 ver. 2.02.04 runtime. I did a "strings" command on one of the object files and it looks like they are compiled using RM/COBOL-85 2.02 for I-80386 Xenix V. The last compile date was in October of 1989. They access the application using terminal emulation from their desktop PCs. I'm trying to find out what tools I need to do this. I understand that the most recent version of the compiler is RM/COBOL v12. The customer does not need to make any changes to the application, I just want to move them to an environment that is more stable than a twenty-plus year old opsys running on 18 year old hardware. It would not surprise me if all I needed was a current runtime. By the same token, it would be reasonable if I need to recompile the

Hello:I return to the forum with the continuation of the problem I had but now I am going more advanced.I bought a new IoBoard to a new vendor that has an API (NuxIOAPI.DLL) and now I can already enter it in the application and send some controls to it (type releto, activate a port, etc).Now the problem I have is the reverse: how to receive an IoBoard event.The command that is required and that is in the documentation is as follows:ValueEnteredEvent (object sender, ValueEnteredEventArgs, and)Can anyone help me?Thank youAlberto Ferraz
Hi Everyone: I've installed an ActiveX for using with Cobol Wow, but the control itself has many objects with its own Methods,Properties and Events. Unfortunately the wow development tools only show the main object. Is there an way in order to access others objects like CreateObject function we use in VB?. In others words how can I create a reference to an object with rm-cobol and wow?. Thanks for your tips, Humberto Betancur
I have a specification to call a stored procedure which accepts a Table type as one of the parameters. Is it possible to create this type of scenario within AcuCobol as a data structure that can be passed to the parameter My current code looks like this and i get an “Invalid SQL data type”, when trying to call the procedure as i am using a temp table created on the database to pass to the procedure but this is not working. MOVE "PAYDAY_TEMP" TO chvJournalName. MOVE "01" TO chvVendorCode. EXEC SQL declare spcursor10 cursor for :ret-code = exec P_F_G_UPD_LEDGER_JOURNAL ( :chvJournalName, :chvVendorCode ) END-EXEC. if SQLCODE < 0 perform error-exit exit paragraph. EXEC SQL open spcursor10 END-EXEC. if SQLCODE < 0 perform error-exit exit paragraph. move 0 to num-rows-read. perform until SQLCODE not = 0 EXEC SQL FETCH spcursor10 into :chvReturnStatus, :intBatchNumber, :intRecordsReceived, :intRecordsProcessed, :intRecordsFailed END-
Hi, I need to use an ActiveX from a vendor to control ioboards. How do I incorporate ActiveX into my program? Thanks Alberto Ferraz
Hello. I have AcuCOBOL in Ubuntu, using AcuThin to connect to the server from Windows PCs. Sometimes energy goes wrong and shut downs wifi routers, so users disconnect from the server, and leave the licenses "in use" (socket connecton error). I want to remove these orphaned users from the session without restart the server. If you ask why I'm asking for this, I'm the new sysadmin of my enterprise, but because the last one got fired, I'm clueless about how to use and maintain this software, because the last sysadmin left no manual, neither documentation. I will be very grateful to anyone who can help me.#Linux#Acuthin#communicationsocketerrorThinClientAcuConnect#AcuCobol
Been using IDX4 data configuration in some of my applications BUT apparently it won't go any big compared to IDX8. However I find that IDX8 is much more vulnerable to corruption (well, mostly on desktop/PC power failure interruptions). Is any of you experiencing the same?#netexpress#DataLimitation
The documentation gives the impression that the web-browser control works with the IE version installed on the client: For the control to work, your users must have Microsoft Internet Explorer Version 4.0 or later on their machine. But I don't think that's true. The web-browser shows IE7 and this is not even installed on my computer, I'm working with Windows10 and IE11. My question is: Can you set or have you infuence on the IE version that the browser-control is using ? Thanks.
For AcuToWeb, we can check the status of gateway and I am curious for the state. -------UID PID PPID C STIME TTY TIME CMDroot 1245 1 0 14:49 ? 00:00:00 /bin/bash Python2.7/pyName: pythonUmask: 0022State: S (sleeping) ----------- For the state, can we declare any or it just shows what the status is?#info#Setup#acutoweb

Has anybody come across a converter that takes the old .DDS 'ACCEPT' screen statement to a GUI screen. Not holding out much hope. John
Greetings: I am looking to convert some very old Micro Focus COBOL code from W/B 4.x to Visual COBOL. I would prefer to use Visual COBOL on Eclipse with JDBC connectivity to SQLite or MySQL. Most importantly, I need some samples for an Eclipse solution. When using MF COBOL on W/B 4.x or Net Express, we call D/S from COBOL. That is, the COBOL is the driver and D/S is a dependent on the COBOL programs...So, is there a way to call a Java GUI using Native COBOL ? For example, could I create a COBOL project using Eclipse and call the "WindowBuilder" [SWT Designer] screens FROM within COBOL ? => If I need to create a Java project and call the COBOL code from within Java; this is a process I am not familiar with; therefore, I would appreciate a few samples. NOTE: The only one available on the Micro Focus site shows a dialog-box with "Hello"; I would appreciate anyone that has some samples that has both the COBOL and the Eclipse GUI for me to review in detail
I'm using the personal edition of Visual COBOL for Eclipse. Is this edition eligible for Micro Focus data tools add-pack? If so, how do I get it? Recently I attempted to register at supportline.microfocus.com/ so that I could get the data tools add-pack and the error message I received was, "A customer attempted to register on the Micro Focus SupportLine website but we were unable to complete their registration automatically because the customer didn't know the exact company name or serial number." I'm just someone trying to learn COBOL at home and on my own time. I don't work for or represent a company that uses COBOL. If the personal edition is eligible for the data tools add-pack I would like to get it. Please respond.#PersonalEdition#Eclipse#Windows7#datatoolsadd-pack#VisualCOBOL
