Problem:

How do you call a C program from a COBOL program?

Resolution:

Add the C DLL to the Mainframe Express project workgroup load library. In the COBOL program, issue a CALL to the C DLL. One can also issue a CALL to an entry point in a DLL by using a 'SET procedure-ptr to Entry 'DLLNAME'. Use the DIALECT(MF) directive to compile the program.
