Hello,  I need to make a program that runs in the background. The goal is to have a program running that, from time to time, will search a database to download new information if it exists. What will be the best way to do it? Best regards Alberto Ferraz

Hi,  I have to do one more integration between my application and a TCP/IP controller. The supplier just sent me the code with the programming of the features in C#, code that I already partially converted to Cobol. Now my question is how and what do I call these features (for example the OPEN and CLOSE functions). I type below a part of the code in C# that was sent to me.using System;using System.Collections;using System.Net;using System.Net.Sockets;using System.Text;using System.Threading;namespace NuxIOAPI2{ public class ANuxIOII : NuxIOBase { protected int nRandomtemp; protected Socket m_clientSocket; //UDP protected AsyncCallback m_pfnCallBack; protected IAsyncResult m_result; protected ArrayList _messages = new ArrayList(); protected IPEndPoint _ipEndpoint; private class SocketPacket { public System.Net.Sockets.Socket thisSocket; public byte[] dataBuffer = new byte[1024]; } public static bool WriteErrorLog(string strText) { System.Diagnostics.Trace.WriteLine(strText); string

When i execute a Post with one entry in an array, I get a 415 error (Unsupported Media).  When I execute a Post with one entry but not part of an array, it works fine.  When I post either of them on the destination site, they both work fine.  Is it possible that something in the dll is not quite right with regard to Posts of arrays?  The JSON in question is [{"email":"default.eml.address@defaulteml.com","first_name":"WALTER","last_name":"M","company":"905 AUTO","street_1":"1160 CRESTLAWN DR UNIT#10","street_2":"SUITE 2008","city":"MISSISSUAGA","state":"ON","zip":" ","country":"CA","country_iso2":"CA","phone":"416454-9026","notes":" ","tax_exempt_category":"N","customer_groupid":0,

Dear all, We just converted our zOS cobol version 4 into Micro Focus COBOL  V6.0 revision 000 on Linux.   the XML PARSE won't accept empty attributes. Do we need to test for xml-text length, or is there a setting to tell the parser to ignore empty attributes? Thanks James

IBM Terminals have an "Exit field key". This key will do the following; 1) Erase the field from the cursor position to the end of the field 2) Tab to the next field My question is; Can this functionality be implimented using the ADIS configuration utility and can said functionality be assigned to a key of my choice? I am using Visual Cobol under WINDOWS Thanks in advance for any help#exitfield#VisualCOBOL#adis

I am trying to display a pop-up menu on a grid for a program executing on Acu-To-Web I managed to get it working, and actually identify what grid row it was clicked on. It seems that you have to define the Pop-Up before displaying the original Floating window and manage the pop-up from the events it generates from the Event Procedure defined for the window. That's fine as long as the grid exists in the original window..  I need to be able to display the pop-up in a subroutine called from the original window. So I defined the pop-up, displayed the window, and called the subroutine passing both the Window's Handle and the Popup's Handle.   In the subroutine i gave the following command:               MODIFY WS-CALLING-PROGRAM-WINDOW-HANDLE EVENT PROCEDURE IS MAIN-SCREEN-EVENT-HANDLER Well guess what folks --  the MAIN-SCREEN-EVENT-HANDLER never gets executed when I finger tap any of the grid rows Can one of the developers, or pr

When a program executing on Acu-to-Web 10.4.1 on an iPad has a paged Grid, none of the Navigation Buttons on the right of the grid don;t work.   When they are tapped, they do blink Is this going to be implemented in the next release or are there new events that can be service similar to MSG-PAGED-FIRST, MSG-PAGED-LAST, MSG-PAGED-NEXT, MSG-PAGED-PREV (I noticed that you can swipe up or down, and the MSG-PAGED-NEXT-WHEEL and MSG-PAGED-PREV-WHEEL events trigger and the grid  display backwards or forwards.)#GridEvents#Acu-to-Web#PagedGrids

When adding a short sleep to a test program I made a simple syntax error. Visual Cobol compiles with no error but Server Express flags an error.

Looks like grid events MSG-GRID-RBUTTON-DOWN and MSG-GRID-RBUTTON-UP events are not supported. and looks like MSG-INIT-MENU and MSG-MENU-INPUT can't be serviced by the grid's Event Handler Is there a way to get a pop-up displayed, on a particular grid Row/Column and know what row./column it is without having to do it from the Window's  Event Procedure nd figuring it out using the Row/col returned from calling W$MOUSE ?#acutoweb#pop-upmenu#GridEvents

Hi, In previous versions of Relativity Designer we had the option to select multiple fields inside an FD and select the toolbar option to mark Redundant Data Items, to update those fields from only one value in a column in a table. In current versions of Relativity Designer, starting with v12.16 with the new design of the interfase, we can not find the option we had in the toolbar to do that. What should we do in 12.18 to mark Redundant Data Items? Regards,

We have a form in our software that prints on an 6 x 12 sheet of paper.   When you select that paper size in the Windows Printer Defaults pop-up box, how do I get that information to my program??  Right now it still prints as the 8 1/2 x 11 default. Is there something I set before I call "PC_PRINTER_INFO_DOTNET"? I should also note that I can't hard code anything in here specifically for the 6 x 12 because this code is in a print copybook that ALL of our programs that print use. This is my code:                declare status-code as binary-long.               declare testdelegate  as type PrinterInfoDelegate.               set testdelegate to                       delegate(gr as type Graphics,          &nb

One of the things you can check with the developers on associated to the Event Handler for Grids: When executing on Acu-Web, I rely on the MSG-GRID-RBUTTON-DOWN and MSG-GRID-RBUTTON-UP events to get generated, to show the POP-UP.  Can I just add the “POP-UP MENU IS GRID-POPUP-MENU-HANDLE” phrase to the grid in the screen section ? What equivalent event, if any, gets generated when a gird row gets a long-tap ?. Have they tried to get a pop-up menu displayed on a paged grid row ? Is there a difference between quick-tap and a long-tap. ?   Also, a number of the “Web-Portal” programs I execute from AcuWeb have paged grids, which rely on showing the pop-up menu.  When you first sign-on, the 1st program that executes deals with whatever the application is.  It establishes the Floating Window.  Then this program calls the Grid Management program.  (The Grid Management program handles the display of grids for all the different Web-Portal programs).  I pass

Hi. I'm using Visual COBOL for Visual Studio Personal Edition with Visual studio 2019 and every time I hit F5 the progam says not responding and the closes.

We are currently working with a test license of VisualCobol 7.0 (for Eclipse) under Windows.We would like to upgrade from NetExpress 5.1 and check what problems arise in our application. Our user interface is based on DialogSystem. Everything seems to work except for two cases in which a runtime error 114 occurs when embedding an ActiveX control in a DialogSystem screenset. 1. When attempting to embed the CrystalReports viewer into a screenset, this crash occurs.2. If a control encapsulated by us in VB (VSFlexGrid from ComponentOne) is to be integrated, then this crash also occurs. Interestingly, it doesn't happen in this case if the VSFlexGrid is embedded directly into a screenset without encapsulation. Does anyone know this problem and how can it be fixed?We have included a few more ActiveX controls in our application. None of the other controls lead to this problem.#Windows
