I am using an FD that has multiple record types. They are all the same length and each has a 'WHEN' directive identifying the type of record. When a record is displayed using Alfred (or SQL View), the first record's field mapping is used. I believe that the documentation states that the first record (or the largest record) is defaulted for mapping the data columns. This default does not map correctly when there is a different record type - except for "V" for some reason. Is there a way around this? Maybe a combination of other XFD directives? Is there an error in how this is defined? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! FD record definitions: *(( XFD WHEN XREF-RECORD-TYPE = "X" )) 01 ITEM-XREF-PART-RECORD. 05 ITEM-XREF-PART-KEY. 10 XREF-RECORD-TYPE PIC X(01). 10 XREF-NUMBER PIC X(30). 05 XREF-OUR-STK-ALT-KEY. 10 XREF-OUR-STK-NO PIC X(15).

Hi everyone. I am working with 3rd party ssystem, that provides a web interface for their services. Have to use get/put/post for various things. Their examples use curl. I tested the connection on my system using curl. There is an error with the SSL certificate(s) apparently, as curl complains until I add the -k (--unsecure) option. That's fine, there is no private data, and everything will be inside a vpn. BUT. When I try to connect using RMNET, I get an error 7. When I check the NetGetError, the text is: "SSL peer certificate or SSH remote key was not OK". Fine. That's basically what curl said. So I tried the NetSSLVerifyPeer command to turn off the verify. Same error. (Note: The response-LEN is zero when doing the HttpGet) Flow: CALL "NetInit" GIVING AIMS-STATUS-CODE. CALL "NetSSLVerifyPeer" USING 0 GIVING AIMS-STATUS-CODE. CALL "HttpGet" USING A

My new host runs 5.14.0-362.18.1.el9_3.x86_64. I am used to Server Express 5.1 running on an older OS. Can I use Server Express 9.0 on my new Oracle Linux host? Someone told me I can't and need to go with Visual Cobol Development HUB for my development and install Cobol Server for my runtime. Is that the best route to go? I will be installing both on the same host running Oracle Linux 9.3. The current user of Cobol on the older host just executes things via CLI. No X-Windows. With Visual Cobol Development HUB and Cobol Server he can still do that correct? thanks! Roy M.
Hi, we are currently migrating a big application from BS2000 mainframe to linux using MF Visual COBOL V9. There are indexed data files that contain 2 identical data sentences (completely identical - indentical primary key aswell) in mainframe. Is there any chance in MF VC to use ISAM files with non unique primary keys? Thanks in advance! Paul#Mainframe#COBOLMigration#ISAM#VisualCOBOL

Created On: 01 June 2010 Problem: How do I avoid failure of installation of NetExpress 5.1 under 64-bit Windows 7? Resolution: The NetExpress 5.1 installation CD does not support Windows 7 in64bit mode. To successfully install NetExpress 5.1:Logon to the Supportline website, navigate to Product Updates -> Net Express 5.1 http://supportline.microfocus.com/websync/netx51.aspDownload and install Net Express 5.1 WrapPack 1 NXP3251010074.exeThis is a complete install of Net Express. Once this installation is complete, download and install WrapPack 04 NXP3251040083.mspThis will produce a Net Express 5.1 installation with the latest maintenance, which will run under 64bit windows 7.

We are in the process to migrate 30 millons LOC written in Cobol Micro Focus using embedded SQL for Oracle, to use PostgreSQL database. We know that there are some open source pre compilers like gixsql, but we are interested in the official support from Micro Focus, is there a supported pre compiler for PostgreSQL?#PostGRESQL#precompliler
It is not easy to find the correct commands to control excel interface. With the Macro Recorder it is very easy to find the VBA-Commands! Now i search a converter from VBA to Cobol? Thanks for help!
Hullo all. I hope the collective intelligence of the community can help guide us here. We have a large-ish program written & running under AcuGT (Extend) for Windows. It has a Windows UI. It is a real-time transaction processing engine with a UI to monitor and control the activity. So it runs in 2+ threads but its a single program. We want to split this into two programs: A transaction processing engine that runs as a Windows Service, so it launches on boot and is always running. No UI at all. A UI that interacts with the above program. Ideally we would just take the existing code - the current UI thread - and make minimal changes to it, so it will still be an AcuGT/Extend program. But users could launch/run it using AcuToWeb. We want to put minimal effort into this, as it does not extend the functionality of our product, it just solves some security + remote-access issues. It should not be too hard to simply split this one program (currently implemented as two threads) into
