Programs that don't recognise existing files
Hello,
First off, I want to thank everyone that helped with advice for installing Fujitsu COBOL on my system. The Program Compatibility Wizard worked, but I didn't get a chance to thank the poster who suggested it. However, Fujitsu is acting really squirrly since it has been installed. When I try to compile a program that I have written, it says that it can't find cobol.cbi in the program's folder. This is the message that I am getting: Build start. cobol32.exe -i (pathname)/cobol.cbi (program name).cbl 'C:\Program' is not found 'Files\Fujitsu' is not found 'COBOL\COBOL97\COBOL.cbi' is not found Build has been stopped. Build Interrupted. The thing is, I HAVE the file on the hard drive, in the right folder. I tried re-installing the program to see if the file was corrupted on the first install, and I have gotten the same result. I can't hard copy the file off the program CD since it's compressed in a way that you have to install the program to move the file over. I need this program to finish my COBOL class. Is there anything I can do to get this working? Is there another compiler that I can use for Windows? I really don't want to have to use the green-and-black-attack (AS400) again... Jam it back in, in the dark. |

Yeah I don't understand learning COBOL, or RPG for that matter. I'm not going to use either of those languages to build a game (or anything graphical for that matter).
CVCC teaches these archaic classes. Thankfully I only have this semester to go before I get my Associates in Programming, after which I can transfer to the 4-year Game and Simulation Development program... Thanks for the link, QuarX. I'll also have to try changing my directory to Windows 3.1 naming specs (this really makes me feel old; that was the OS that was pre-installed on the family's first PC), and see if that works. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
