Trying to load Microsoft Visual Studio with Micro Focus Visual COBOL PE I get this message:

"An error occurred in MainProg while attempting to open MM.cbl
  No license for this feature is available ... expired.
  
  Unable to obtain the requested licens:  [5997] no license is found"
  
  How do I get a license renewal? 

 Thanks

Paul Richards

Hi Paul,

I would suggest you download the latest version of the Visual COBOL Personal Edition from Rocket® Visual COBOL® Personal Edition (formerly a Micro Focus® product) | Rocket® Software

This will provide you with the latest software and a new license.

Thanks
