hi,   I run cobol program with net-express 5.1 wp 16 (work fine in mainframe and Enterpise developer.)   but on my net express project I have this error: I/O error : file 'SORTWK3'error code: 3/5 (ANS85), pc=0, call=1, seg=0 13 File not found   Can I solve with compiler directive or other?   thanks bye

Boa tarde. O programa abaixo envia email pelo Cobol (AcuCobol) mas não tenho a biblioteca em destaque. Alguém teria a biblioteca:  MSMAPI32.DEF para me fornecer.

Created On:  24 June 2011 Problem: Micro Focus runtime licensing uses a number of segments of shared memory to monitor and control deployment licensing.  There are times when a program or operating system misbehaves and the shared memory becomes corrupted. Resolution: Attached to this article are two versions (32 and 64 bit) of shared memory reset tool. The MFSharedMemoryReset tool allows the systems administrator to reset the shared memory used by Micro Focus licensing without the need to reboot a machine. This should resolve the problem. Incident #2524762 Attachments MFSharedMemoryReset-32bit.zipMFSharedMemoryReset-64bit.zip Old KB# 34191#COBOL

I am compiling procedural COBOL into class files and deploying it to an .ear folder which is being run using JBOSS. The program exits prematurely and I am seeing the following error in the server logs: com.microfocus.cobol.program.COBOLProgramLoadException: 173     Called program file not found in drive/directory [ONOFFCHK]   ONOFFCHK is one of many functions the application uses to handle memory contained in a .dll file called ACSDLL. This .dll contains functions exclusively written in C. Using the debugger I have found the line of code where the failure occurs: SET DLLPTR TO ENTRY "ACSDLL".   It seems like the .dll is not being found at runtime, despite its directory being set in the PATH. Is there any particular setup in Eclipse or compiler directives required to link JVM COBOL to a .dll containing C functions?   Thanks!#Eclipse#VisualCOBOL

Hi, Can any advise how to convert below to Visual Cobol? using System; using System.IO; using System.Net; using System.Net.Security; using System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates;   namespace ConnectToFtpDemo {     class Program     {         static void Main(string[] args)         {             try             {                 FtpWebRequest request = (FtpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("ftp:///testFileUpload.txt");                  request.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.UploadFile;                  request.Credentials = new Netwo

Has anyone ever bundled an acucobol 9 installer into an MSI so it automatically installs chosen options into a particular (non standard) directory? thanks

I am having a problem compiling my COBOL app with Linux bash script.  I need to set JVMCLASSPATH to several JAR files and I keep getting the error    Cobol compiler argument exceeds 255 byte limit: JVMCLASSPATH(...)   Any suggestions ?  #CobJVM#JVMCLASSPATH

Is there a way to implicitly type a variable in visual cobol? For example, in C#, if I have the statement: var myResult = myFunction(parm, parm2); The type of myResult will be whatever type that myFunction returns. Is there a cobol equivalent to the above function call? Thanks, Mike#VisualCOBOL

Can a REST API definition supplying client ID and/or client secret be done using Visual COBOL 2.3 for Visual Studio 2012?  Is this possible from the new project/the web service client application from WSDL/JSON or using IMTKMAKE?

I have an alphanumeric entry field which I am populating before displaying my dialog screen and would like to set the cursor position at the end. For example, if I populate an entry field in my Visual Cobol program with the word "TESTING"  prior to displaying my screen, I would like the blinking cursor to appear at the end of the word (which would be after the letter "G") once my screen displays.  I do not know how to do this.   Thanks in advanced for your help.

Hi - I'm trying to install Visual COBOL Personal Edition on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed (version id =  20180829). I've added the dependencies the installer asked for (Ed, glibc-locale-32bit and JDK 8), but when I run the installer I get: install.sh - ExtractFiles - 001 - Failed to extract product PaX tool returned non-zero return code. RC:- 255 The installer has created the following directories below /opt/microfocus, but both the VisualCOBOL directories are empty:  logsVisualCOBOLVisualCOBOL.BKP-2018-0-03.14:54:01 Any suggestions?  Thanks.

I was able to execute the sample visual cobol WEB WCF service and validate its results. I am trying to consume a C# WCF service hosted in a different domain from a winform test client managed program developed using VC 2.3. I get error message  "The server has rejected the client credentials". Here's my test client app config file details...   <client> <endpoint address="net.tcp://servername.domain:port number/path/TestService.svc" binding="netTcpBinding" bindingConfiguration="TestService" contract="ServiceReference.ITestService" name="TestService"> <identity> <userPrincipalName value="service account@another domain" /> </identity> </endpoint> </client>   What am i missing ? #WCF#VisualCobolManaged

Hi, I have tab control in my program. I tried to display the background in bright color instead of the default grey color. I create the tab with this code: DISPLAY TAB-CONTROL UPON MAIN-WINDOW, LINE 1.5, COL 1.5, SIZE 159 CELLS, LINES 89 CELLS, MULTILINE, HANDLE TAB-1TAB-BACKGROUND-COLOR IS 16FONT IS LARGE-FONT. The tab control is then displayed with the color I want, but when I begin adding tabs with this code: MODIFY TAB-1, TAB-TO-ADD = ("&Project", "Proper&ties", "&Revenues && Expenses" ) I got the following memory error message and the program crashes. When I don't use the TAB-BACKGROUND-COLOR IS 16 parameter, I don't have any problem, but don't get the background color I want. Am I doing anything wrong? Are we able to change the background color in any other way? Thanks.

I don't understand what those terms mean.  I would be most appreciative for reference to any "for dummies" documents or videos on BUILD, REBUILD, and CLEAN.#clean#Build

I've got about sixty programs in my solution / project.  (The entire solution is one project) I decided that about ten programs were obsolete, no longer needed, so I deleted the source code (*.cbl). But now when I try to build/rebuild either the solution or project, I get errors like these: 1>COBOL : error COBCH1502: Open fail : 'C:\\PSMJ\\TEST.cbl'1>COBOL : error COBCH1502: Open fail : 'C:\\PSMJ\\X-BB-BENCH.cbl'1>COBOL : error COBCH1502: Open fail : 'C:\\PSMJ\\X-FE-BENCH.cbl'1>COBOL : error COBCH1502: Open fail : 'C:\\PSMJ\\X-FN-BENCH.cbl'1>COBOL : error COBCH1502: Open fail : 'C:\\PSMJ\\X-MC-BENCH.cbl' What can I do to make the solution / project completely forget about these programs?#COBOL#VisualStudio

When using the Acuthin.msi package to install thin client on a windows pc, we very often have the problem that installation terminates with no error messages, but when invoiking acuthin.exe a message is displayed saying that mfc140u.dll is missing on the computer. When installing from the original Extend 10.2.0 installation package, there is no problem. But this is not desirable when installing using remote desktop as the zipped installation package is several hundred MB. Any suggestions? Best regards Lars-Bo#Acuthin#Acuthininstallation

I am trying to do two simple tasks and I cannot find the answer in help topics.    1) How can I format an entry field in Dialog Sytem to display a zip code with dashes. For example, I am trying to display the zip code 115308020 as 11530-8020. I am able to format amount fields and date fields but I cannot figure out zip code fields   2) Dialog Sytem comes with insert fields as INS1 and INS0. I am trying to give the user the ability to overwrite text on an entry field. For example, on most windows application, users simply hit the "insert" key on their keyboard in order to overwrite text as appose to appending text. But the help topics in Dialog System does not really provide information as to how to use their INS1 and INS0 functions in order to achieve this.   Thanks in advance for your help

We have installed 10.2.0 on a new linux server and are using both Windows 7 and Windows 10 workstations running acuthin.exe. There seems to be a difference in how the TAB key works. On one screen we have 6 grids aligned and normally we used the TAB key to switch between the grids. But using TAB on Windows 10 to go to next grid, selects the current cell (as if we pressed ENTER in the cell) before switching to next grid. SHIFT TAB (to go back to previous grid) works fine. Problem only occur on Windows 10. Acuthin on Windows 7 works fine. Any suggestions? Best regards Lars-Bo#acuthintab#Acuthin

I have an old Net Express project that I have converted to Visual Cobol 2.3, I had issues getting the RUN time module to load based upon my path command, so I copied all of the runtime modules into my folder and I get the following message:   DSGRUN.dll is in the CCARMARUN folder:     What am I doing wrong?  Do I have a compile/link option incorrect, using dynamic runtime model.   Thanks

I have this code: move 'select * from TABLE where a = ? and b = ? and c = ? to w-sql exec sql open cur_read_2 using :w-a, :w-b, :w-c end-exec But this select can be variable, so I can have here for example only ... where a = ? ... or ... where a = ? and c = ? ... So, can I somehow setup exec-sql part dynamically, to have proper number of host-variables here? In actual case I have 7 WHERE variables and full list of combinations is possible. I suppose that I must use SQL DESCRIPTOR, but I don't know how...#SQL#NetExpress5.1

I am trying to animate a COBOL module using Net Express - Animator. I completed the below steps before trying to animate -  1. I have set up a local server in my machine and copied the necessary input data files to my local disk. 2. We need to run test job in ES Console in Debug mode with 1 step which would contain the impacted Cobol module. I prepared the test job accordingly and as mentioned in Step 1, I copied all relevant input files and loadlib of impacted program to local disk. 3. In ES Console, Server --> Properties --> MTO --> JES --> General, the path for JES Program path, System Catalog, Default Allocated Dataset Location and System Procedure Library is present. Under JES program path, I have put in the concatenation of network and local disk path. Under system catalog, I have mentioned location of Catalog.dat which was copied from network drive to local path. Under 'Default allocated dataset location', I have put in local and network path. Under system proce
