I totally understand the value of a passing fun-time project. Thanks for the interesting history lesson. -----Original Message----- From: discussion@gnucobol.p.re.sourceforge.net discussion@gnucobol.p.re.sourceforge.net On Behalf Of John Ritter Sent: Saturday, May 11, 2024 8:03 PM To: [gnucobol:discussion] cobol@discussion.gnucobol.p.re.sourceforge.net Subject: [gnucobol:discussion] tandy rmcobol I wouldn't mind a show and tell. Unfortunately it will have to wait because I did something really, really...

John, What cobol software were you able to compile? Was it the Tandy accounting system? I used multiplan on the TRS 6000 & Model4p back in the 80s. The menu is activated with the / key. If I recall correctly it was written by Microsoft way before Excel. -----Original Message----- From: discussion@gnucobol.p.re.sourceforge.net discussion@gnucobol.p.re.sourceforge.net On Behalf Of John Ritter Sent: Friday, May 10, 2024 2:25 PM To: [gnucobol:discussion] cobol@discussion.gnucobol.p.re.sourceforge.net...

Oh that's great news. I'd love to hear your stories from back in the day. Here is my email jgrillot@att.net

Yes , I was. Now, I'm not thanks for the tip Simon

I have a gnu Colbol 3.2 environments on Linux & Windows 10. I try can compile a program on the Linux side error free. But If I try to compile that same progran in the windows 10 environment using C:\gnucobol-3.2_win\cobc\cobc -m screen.cbl -Wlinkage I get this error configuration error: \gnucobol-3.2_win\cobc\config/default.conf: No such file or directory In the script I set set COB_CONFIG_DIR=\gnucobol-3.2_win\cobc. I also trired set COB_CONFIG_DIR=\gnucobol-3.2_win\cobc\config\ that file does exist...

Michael, Thanks for the update. I did download COBOLSEQ.COB. I will update the copybooks and compile. I will test. I will also check out QWKFIX-TEST.COB too. I appreciate you suggestions so don't butt out 😊 John -----Original Message----- From: discussion@gnucobol.p.re.sourceforge.net discussion@gnucobol.p.re.sourceforge.net On Behalf Of Michael F Gleason Sent: Thursday, October 19, 2023 10:03 PM To: [gnucobol:discussion] cobol@discussion.gnucobol.p.re.sourceforge.net Subject: [gnucobol:discussion]...

I'm using visual studio code for COBOL development. I'm aware there are COCOL extensions in the market place. I installed the extension for gnuCOBOL. I'm hoping there is a way to merge copybook code into the source program that referenes it. I have a folder open with all the source code for my project. It would be handy if I could simply hihlight the name of the copy book and goto the defition but that doesn't work. Is there a way to do this other than opening it from the explorer?
