I am having an issue with a web application. We are migrating from a mainframe environment to a Microfocus web application. We have web applications for different transactions. There are several web applications in TFS, linked together with a Start_up menu type application. I have one application on my local computer, working fine, local IIS set up, builds correctly. One of the other developers has another application on their computer, working. But getting the source code from TFS to build hers on mine fails. There are no errors in the build, but it fails. I'm wondering what steps I need to go through to determine where the error is occuring that is causing the build to fail, even though there is no errors in it. There are warnings, but of the not enough parameters in a call variety, which work ok on other applications. Again, the Start_up web application works for me on my local machine with another web app, but not the one downloaded from another developer.

Is there a way to turn off the selection of the value in a textbox field when you tab to the field?

I have a naïve code program that I put as a single project in a solution that is a single executable.  On the cobol link tab I have checked the add system files.  When the client runs the .exe from the server he gets an error ''cblrtsm.dll is missing'.  Should that not be included in the .exe at compile? Thanks

Problem: When ACUCOBOL-GT runtime tries to call a .Net assembly for the first time, the following error may occur: Invalid class string (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800401F3 (CO_E_CLASSSTRING)) Resolution: Run the following command from a DOS prompt: marshal.exe /RegServer You need to have machine-administrator privileges to run this command-line.#.net

This is from your tutorial on calling a managed class from native code: If is use COM onterop to call a managed class, I get error  "(80070057): The parameter is incorrect" if the managed class does not define the passed parameters as type string; for example, if a PIC X(1) parameter is passed from native code and the managed class parameter is PIC X(1).Sometimes I need to pass a number of parameters.  Where can I find the rules for how to pass parameters from native to managed using COM interop?#VisualCOBOL

We have a program that reads a text file and uses AcuSQL to insert the data into an MS-SQL table. The program has been working for years. i runs on a seperate computer from where the SQL table resides. The PC on which the program runs died yesterday and a new PC was installed. Since the program has been running on the new PC we get the following error on each insert: SQLCODE: 000000001   SQLSTATE: 22018   Invalid character value for cast specification Most fields in the insert are Char or varchar and are fed a pic x. But I also have the following:a smallint that is fed a s9(9) comp-5a smalldate that is fed a pic x(10)   (Filled with a date formatted mm/dd/yyyy)a smallmoney that is fed a pic 9(4)v99. As I said this was working fine on the old PC. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Hi: We are running Server Express 5.0 WrapPack 3 on HP-UX. Does anyone no if Server Express is capable of connecting to an IBM MQ Message Queue? I've seen in the $COBDIR/lib shared libraries for MQCONN.so and MQCONNX.so so I'm thinking it might be possible. Any advice would be helpful.#MQServerExpress

Hello, I want to show the contents of different kind of files on my application window. To accomplish that I am using the web-browser control. Opening a web page or a jpg file works fine. When opening a tif file however Windows photo viewer opens in a new window. The same thing occurs when opening a pdf file using the pdf viewer which comes with Windows 8. After installing Acrobat Reader that problem is solved. Acrobat reader opens within my web-browser control. Does anyone recognize this problem?

Using the different PC_PRINTER options  if you want to print several copies you must always first select the copies, CALL PC_PRINTER_DEFAULT_PROPERTIES  and afterwards  PC_PRINTER_OPEN. is there a way first open the printer, and afterwards, depending on the selected printer ask the user if he wants several copies? Or even better, can I set a flag, so that the PC_PRINTER_OPEN asks how many copies I want? Thanks Rolf

Problem: After upgrading to ACUCOBOL-GT 9.2.3, graphical controls that have a DROP-LIST style do not work as expected. MODIFY VALUE does not show the correct item and the current value is left blank. Resolution: This is a memory issue fixed in release 9.2.4 with ECN-4307. The new release of extend suite is available for download in the Product Updates section of the SupportLine web site.#9.2.4#9.2.3

On my Windows 8.1 Pro System (German Version) I am using Visual Studio 2013 with Visual Cobol 2013. I have a solution with a Webservice project and a 2nd project with the processing classes. After installing Update 2.2.2 of Visual Cobol there are some curious effects: On opening the Cobol source of the Webservice project Visual Studio starts updating IntelliSense but just waits for something for many seconds or even minutes. Finally I get error COBCH0942: Could not load assembly ‘…\\processingassembly.dll’ followed by several COBCH0845 messages not finding the classes of the processingassembly. Rebuild the Solution ends without error and the Webservice works as expected. Has anybody made similar experiences or a work around? If a go back to Visual Cobol Update 2.2.1 the curious effects disappear. Werner Lanter PS: I opened a support incident (2804043) for this case.

Dear Chris, Could you please say to me how I can put a PL-SQL TYPE HEADER into a Visual Cobol Program ??? Many Thanks, PJM

I've got a year Net Express  license and the  license screen still pops up and makes me click ok. Is there a way to keep this from popping up every time?

Does somebody know how I can insert special  characters in the sourcefile?  With NOTEPAD or WORD I have the possibility to press <Alt> and a numeric value  (Example  <Alt>225 )  for any ascii value.  But the IDE does not accept these values. Holding down <alt> Instead of inserting the value, the cursor just jumps down several lines or inserts something that does not conform with the Windows Character Set nor to the Ascii Table. Is there a function like "insert HEX value" thanks Rolf

My program aborted with the following message: I/O error: file MY-FILE error code: 9/006 (ANSI74), PC=0, CALL=1, SEG=0 6 ERROR MESSAGE TEXT NOT FOUND. Looking in the Help I found errors 0, 2, 4, 5, 7, 10 and more, but # 6 is not described.  Does somebody know what 6 means? When I run the program again, mostly no error is found, but suddenly it comes again.  Is the error due to the network? Thanks for any help Rolf

I upgraded to the latest version of Visual Cobol and my data connection no longer works. Has something changed with how I connect? I tried removing and then adding back the catalog using the ADO.Net connection editor and it still does not work. I test the connection from the connection editor and it connects successfully.  Iget the following error in the program "A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishi". Any ideas on what may be wrong?  

I had Visual Studio 2010PE installed on my system, I uninstalled it. I now installed Visual COBOL for Visual Studio 2012 PE , 1 year subscription.

How can I get Visual COBOL 2.2 PE trail version working on my computer? Thanks

Hi Everyone, Were having a major issue with AcuThinclient where we are getting a number of communication Socket error. We have setup a remote datacentre to host all our applications in the cloud and when we tried to use this product, we are getting this error and then the product completely shuts off. We do not have a very stable internet connection and this is the only ISP around our current location so were stuck with them. We need to have some way to have some kind of keep alive session with the AcuThin-Client so if there is a slight disconnect, it doesn't drop the whole connection. A good example of this of course is Remote Desktop. Somone had noted that we could use RDP locally to the Datacentre and access thinclient that way however having a machine just for this purpose isn't practical and a waste of system resources. Does anyone know any alternate solutions or suggestions that can help us avoid this error? Thanks, jjjj12212#communicationsocketerrorThinClientAcuConnect

Problem Who provides support for COBOL-CGXI when used within RM/COBOL programs? Resolution The COBOL-CGIX for RM/COBOL product was the forerunner to the Xcentrisity™ Business Information Server (BIS) product range and provided a way to quickly move a RM Cobol application from a character based application to a Web Server based application without having to rewrite all the COBOL business logic. This meant that RM COBOL handled the Common Gateway Interface (CGI) calls from the Web page. The documentation for the last supported version of COBOL-CGIX which is a Windows help file stored inside the attached zip file, provided with RM/Cobol can be downloaded from this location: RMCGIX.zip The COBOL-CGIX product is supported by the company England Technical Services (ETS). Below is a link to their home page:             http://showcase.netins.net/web/etsinc/index.html Note: The standard COBOL syntax is supported by Micro Focus; howev
