There's a check next to "Java(TM) 6.0 Update 27 32-bit (Already installed)" but I get a messages that says "This application requires 32-bit Oracle Java 1.6 or later. Please install Oracle Java and then run this installer again."

If I run "Configure Java" from the start menu, then go to Java tab and "View" to see the installed runtimes, I see: 1.8.0_60 (previously installed) and 1.6.0_27 (installed during the enterprise developer install process) it he User tab and the 1.8 version in the System tab.

I'm running Windows 7, 64-bit.

Any suggestions would be great!  Thanks.

    You might try deinstalling the 1.8 version of Java, then attempting the reinstall. If you want to install and use 1.8 for other purposes afterward  you may need add the -vm entry in the eclipse.ini to point to the 1.6 version of java to run Visual COBOL.

    -vm

    C:\\Java\\JDK\\1.6\\bin\\javaw.exe (path will vary based on where you installed this jvm)
