I am working on a COBOL web site using Net Express 5 and Solo. For my images I want to use a web share directory "images". Solo by default has shares for cgi-bin and COBOL and has a comment "To share files, just start Windows Explorer and right click on the directory you want to share, then select "Properties" and the "Web Share" tab." This worked for Windows XP, as Explorer gave the option to create web shares. Under Windows 7 the only way I know to create web shares is via IIS - but there is no site for Solo, so I cannot create a web share or virtual directory. Solo works happily without IIS on a test machine.
I am trying Visual Cobol 2.3 after using Netexpress the first source I try to compile gets the error COBCH1505 I-O error _ IDY file this does not happen in Netexpress. I am missing a setting or something? The online documentation for the error slighty lacks a fix. All help gratefully acccepted.
Problem: The ACUCOBOL-GT runtime may show a constant increase of occupied memory, regardless of the version in use. This may be seen easily in the ACU debugger and using the "u" command. Resolution: If only the "Windows" Memory item increases, a possible cause for this unusual memory allocation is the definition of a Layout Manager handle in the Working-Storage Section of the program. When a called program contains a line like this: 77 NW-HND-LM HANDLE OF LAYOUT-MANAGER LM-RESIZE. an amount of 36 bytes circa of memory is allocated every time the program is called. This can cause a great increase of used memory when the program is called recursively in a loop, even if the Layout Manager is not used by the program itself. To stop this process, either remove the definition of the unused handle or destroy the handle itself before leaving the program: DESTROY NW-HND-LM If the allocated memory will continue to grow without reason, contact the Customer Care for a further analysis of
Problem Is it possible to use Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) with AcuConnect Thin Client? Resolution Yes, this is possible starting with ACUCOBOL-GT version 10.0.0. These are the requirements to set on the Server side: - configure the Firewall to allow the dialogue between machines with IPv6- install AcuConnect Thin Client 10.x.x- turn on the variable AGS_USE_IPV6 in the configuration file for AcuRCL (acurcl.cfg)- start AcuRCL - verify the IPv6 address of the server, for example using the DOS tool "ipconfig"The output should be something like: Ethernet adapter XYZ: Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : domain-name Link-local IPv6 Address . . . . . : fe80::30e8:2ad5:8a5:c2ef IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 10.120.73.162 Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 10.120.73.254 On the Client side:- set AGS_USE_IPV6=1 on each client machine that will connect to the serverThis variable can be set either in the user/system environment
I am trying to download the Personal Edition for Eclipse on Windows 7. The download page gave me the choice of Visual Studio or Eclipse, but the file downloaded was vsvc2015_23.exe. The Eclipse tab appears to have the Visual Studio product on it ?

F11 - Step, stop working. Receiving Catastrophic Failure message. F5 works, but looks like all other step features are not. I get the error whether or not I use F11 key or the button in Visual COBOL. Tried deleting .idy file, restarting...Failure continues. On a related note, Only on VC, do I have to press the fn key to get the F keys to work. Outside of that, they are enabled (verified bios). #failure#catastrophic#StepOver#VisualCOBOL#VisualStudio#F11
Hi, I'm seeing some odd behavior with C$OPENSAVEBOX and extend 10.1.0 on Windows 7. When I try to open a file using several different file types in opnsav-filters, the first file type displays (sort of), but the rest either don't appear at all or are filled with garbage characters. I've tested the same code under 9.2.5 as well, and it works fine. The filter I'm using is "Text files (*.txt)|*.txt|Cobol sources (*.cob)|*.cob|All files (*.*)|*.*" Under extend 9.2.5 it looks like this: Under 10.1.0 it looks like this (it varies): Is this a known issue? Is there something we need to do differently with C$OPENSAVEBOX under extend 10.1.0? Thanks Claire#opnsav-filters#extend10.1.0#COPENSAVEBOX#Windows7

In Rm cobol there was an option on the accept to wait for a termination key. In MF cobol there doesn't seem to be that option. Would anyone know if this is supposed to be enabled by default. I get mixed results. sometime a program will wait, other times when the value that is accepting the input gets filled it will automatically jump to the next statement.
Hi, Is there a way to test whether a floating window is minimized or maximized ? Thanks in advance.#ACUCOBOL8.1
I am trying to parse an XML file. I tried to follow the documentation on AcuXML, the XML2FD sets the file to binary sequential I made the changes to cobol config but when i read the file its not looking at the tags its looking like just a sequential stream of data. I am going to look at RMnet and XML Parse next. Any opinions on which is best for XML parsing and any help with AcuXML would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

I am trying to print a form with a bitmap overlay using Win$Printer. For compatibility reasons, I do not want to change the report layout. When loading a font, W$font does not appear to allow you to use a decimal size, like you can in Microsoft Word. Does anyone know how I could adjust the font size to 11.5? Thanks in advance for any help.
Reaching out and seeing if anybody has a simple Wpf Listview sort example that they could post. I have a Wpf app that contains a Listview, but would like to be able to click on the heading and sort the columns. Thanks, Marc
Let's assume the following situation. On a web page on site A a cgi-script is started on server B which starts a cobol program named P1 passing parameters; program P1 calls a second program P2.The program P1, which has been two parameters "field1" and "field2", use a CGI form to have available "field1":01 Cgi-Form-P1 Is External-Form. 05 Field1 Pic X(10) Is Identified By "field1".and the statement: Accept Cgi-Form-P1Now, "field2" parameter should be used only by the P2 program.To achieve this I declare a structure as follows:01 Cgi-Form-P2 Is External-Form. 05 Field2 Pic X(10) Is Identified By "field2."and the statement: Accept Cgi-Form-P2 I did some testing and it seems to work but I'm not sure.I would like to know if this configuration is correct or if it has limitations, and it may cause problems.Thank you all. P.S. Sorry for my English..
I'm getting return code 292 when I run C$JAVA with op-code CJAVA-CALLSTATIC. Has anyone already saw this error before? Tks.
Hi, We have Visual Cobol for Eclipse 2.2 and is successfully running to manage cobol applications to load to Oracle dabatase. we are trying to implement a call from Cobol to a web service which was already been in place(SOAP). Basically we would like to consume webservice. Seeking help and relavant info as to how to do that. Thanks Chad.
Hi, I use the following functions to call one program within another: method-id RegistoCartoesX public. 01 telaMenu type WPFApplication1.CA_RegCartao. procedure division. set telaMenu to new WPFApplication1.CA_RegCartao invoke telaMenu::CA_RegCartao_Ini(lda-rec) invoke telaMenu::ShowDialog() end method. This works fine and the screen of the second program is shown when the command "invoke screenMenu :: ShowDialog ()" is executed.At this point the screen is waiting for user action. Now what I need is when the screen is shown to perform another function that can be the flame of another screen / program, ie, I need that after the screen is shown to perform an action without the intervention of the user. For example: the screen that is shown has a data grid with the names of the clients. If the number of clients is less than five, another screen / program must be called to enter more customer names. Thanks Alberto Ferraz
Can somebody please help me to understand on how BRM works in COBOL Analyzer. When I tried to create rules, it is displaying error as create rule is not available in this context. So I want to know if we can automatically detect the business rules in the program? Looking for some help. Thank you.
I have a simple program that writes to two files. my file assignments look like this: select optional reg assign to "REGFILE". select optional peg assign to "UserFolder\\PEGFILE". I have an environment variable called dd_UserFolder which point to a valid directory. When I run the program in VS2015 all is well. both files get written to the respective, however when I run the program outside of the environment using a cobol command prompt I get an error 9/198. Dialect is RM Anyone experience this behavior as well?
