Hi,

Can we compile BMS maps using Server Express using latest version?
I found that Server Express does not have the facility for compiling BMS maps as per the documenttation at following link._support.microfocus.com/.../mdwalk.htm
What is the remedy in this case if we dont have Net Express/Mainframe Express available?

Regards,
Kiran

Server Express does not incorporate the BMS compiler, nor the BMS Screen Painter.
Server Express, as a standalone product is not intended for Mainframe SubSystem migration.
You should use Net Express 5.1 Studio EE or Studio EE 6.0 for this purpose.
Then, BMS sources can be compiled under Windows from Net Express IDE, Visual Studio 2008 or from a COBOL command prompt.
The generated .mod files need to be transferred to UNIX/Linux system.
