Hi,
As part of academics I am using IBM COBOL ver 1.0 Details as given
below:
IBM Personal Computer COBOL Compiler
Version 1.00 (C)Copyright IBM Corp 1982
(C)Copyright Microsoft, Inc. 1982
I am trying to run the same on my home PC which runs Windows 2000/XP.
I have solved the problem of running 16-bit applications on windows
2000. But I am unable to compile my sample HELLO.COB application on it.
The command prompt output is appended below:
==================================================
E:\temp\cobol\MS-COBOL>cobol hello
IBM Personal Computer COBOL Compiler
Version 1.00 (C)Copyright IBM Corp 1982
(C)Copyright Microsoft, Inc. 1982
Object filename [HELLO.OBJ]:
Source listing [NUL.LST]:
Not ready reading drive A
Abort, Retry, Fail?a
==============================================
Why is the compiler trying to read drive A ? How can I solve this
problem ? Kindly advice.
regards
dev
