While we are waiting for our application server to be configured we have started some preliminary testing of our application outside of the VS IDE on our development PCs.  Everything runs as expected when there are no errors, but if an error is encountered then a "Visual Studio Just-In-Time Debugger" window opens and must be manually dealt with.  When we click the "No" button then the error messages familiar to us from our Net Express days are displayed. We are using VS 2013 and VC 2.3 for VS 2013 on a Windows 7 PC.  Our projects are Native COBOL, Release configuration (no "Compile for debugging"), x64 platform, and linked as Dynamic with binding.  The Console Application projects include system programs, the Link Library projects do not. Q1. So why is a .idy file created on Build? Q2. Why is the VS JIT Debugger being triggered if everything is built with no "Compile for debugging"? Q3. Is there a way

Prelude Several examples of how to utilize COBOL in a Microsoft .NET environment have been circulating for a number of years. Some of these examples are quite dated and due to Framework enhancements, (2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 4.5 and now 4.6) the use of the namespaces as well as the syntax used to access them has changed significantly. Micro Focus recently released Visual COBOL 2.3, our flag-ship product for Visual Studio 2015. With a number of changes that have occurred in both .NET and Visual COBOL an update of all our previous articles is in order. So over the next couple of months we will be updating all of our previous articles to the latest versions and introducing new articles with new content. We hope you find these articles educational and valuable to you and a benefit to your organization.   This particular article has benefited from a number of changes in Micro Focus Visual COBOL. The addition of interfacing capabilities in .NET and JVM have made the process of accessing data hi

I have three questions to ask your help (the following link is the example of the three situations): http://www.esic-lda.pt/VC_Help_V01.pdf 1-I'm using a datagrid and load the data as the example you sent me: working-storage section.       01 custTab type Tabelas. set custTab to new Tabelas set custTab::CODIG to BTB-CODIG set custTab::DESAX to BTB-DESAX write custList from custTab Now I have two problems: It's created a line more; I can't select the first row to the first time. 2 - Picture in a data field If the field value is zero then is put a 0 in the first position of the field and write before that position 3 - CheckBox inside a datagrid How do I manage the checked and uncheked in this situation? Thsnks again

I am using Visual COBOL 2.2 under VS 2012. The MF manual says that on the SQL tab of Project Properties I should see "Oracle Pro*COBOL (COBSQL)" as an option. That option is missing from the drop down list. Pro*COBOL was installed after Visual COBOL. How can I get Pro*COBOL onto the list in the drop down? Thanks, Leigh.#COBOLSQLCOBSQL

HI, Scenario: I have to call COBOL program from my WCF/WCF REST. I have created a wcf and wcf rest project and incorporated my C# code in the interface implementation.

Hi, I want to ZIP one file contained in a PC's local directory. Can anyone advise how to convert this into cobol? //Creates a new, blank zip file to work with - the file will be //finalized when the using statement completes using (ZipArchive newFile = ZipFile.Open(zipName, ZipArchiveMode.Create)) { //Here are two hard-coded files that we will be adding to the zip //file. If you don't have these files in your system, this will //fail. Either create them or change the file names. newFile.CreateEntryFromFile(@"C:\\Temp\\File1.txt", "File1.txt"); newFile.CreateEntryFromFile(@"C:\\Temp\\File2.txt", "File2.txt", CompressionLevel.Fastest); }Taken from the website:-www.codeproject.com/.../Creating-Zip-Files-Easily-in-NET

Problem: When attempting to start AcuBench version 10.0.0 on Windows XP there is a message "not a valid win32 application". Solution: Unfortunately AcuBench version 10.0.0 will not run on Windows XP. This is becuase the underlying third-party software upon which AcuBench is built does not support Windows XP. There is nothing that can be done in AcuBench 10.0.0 to overcome that limitation. The only solution for AcuBench 10.0.0 is to move to a newer version of Windows; i.e. Vista or later. If you must develop on Windows XP you will need to install AcuBench version 9.2.5 or prior and then configure the project to use the version 10.0.0 Compiler and Runtime. Here's how to do that: 1. Install ACUCOBOL-GT Version 10.0.0 Development System only, not AcuBench, and activate the license.2. Install ACUCOBOL-GT Version 9.2.5 Acubench only, and activate the license.3. Start AcuBench 9.2.54. Open your AcuBench project.5. On the Project menu select 'Project settings'.6. Click on

I am trying to use AcuBench after being away for awhile.  Just installed Version 10 and tried to run AcuBench.  I get the message "aclnt.dll missing, or is missing functions!".  I have aclnt.dll in AcuGT/bin and I added it to AcuBench when I got the message the first time.  What am I missing?
