Hi  to everybody,

I'm trying to figure out how to pass data to my Cobol program that runs on Windows. For mainframes, that would be via the Parm keyword on the JCL Exec Pgm;  for Windows it should be specifying the data to pass on the Command line (e.g. C:\\program path address....\\Progname   "data to pass".).   Any suggestion?

                                                                                                          Thanks

Thanks, Chris. I have not tried yet as I need to do some readings beforehand because is not straightforward to me yet. I'll let you know. Thanks.
