+2I accidently deleted a directory that contained my COBCONFIG configuration file. I've searched the documentation and the files tab, but have had no luck. If I could please get a sample file, I'm sure I could put the settings I need to change in it. Especially, I need the setting to use an external file-handler/mfextmap.dat. Please help out. Thanks in advance.

The COBCONFIG file is just a text file that contains set statements for COBOL tunables.
The entry to turn on the extfh filename mapping is:
set environment_mapper=TRUE
other entries can be found under Reference-->Run-time System Configration-->Run-time Tunables in the NX documentation.

Thanks Chris.
I looked at what you referred me to and don't see the following in that reference. Do they go in this file or another config file?
MAXLITERAL=160
PICX=VARCHAR2
PREFETCH=1000
DBMS=V8
MODE=ORACLE
SQLCHECK=SEMANTICS
UNSAFE_NULL=YES
XREF=NO
USERID=uid/pswd
And pointing to the correct database?

These are Oracle Pro*COBOL directives and they should be in a different file in your Oracle folder.
I believe the filename is pcbcfg.cfg but you should chekc the Oracle Pro*COBOL docs.

Excellent. You're correct. Thanks for your help. This Net Express stuff gets confusing when you only touch it every few months. I'm back up and running again though.
