PRODUCT VERSION:  All  
     SUPERSEDES:  Those portions of Note 3-120 dealing with MicroFocus
                  Cobol

        SYMPTOM:  Failure to run a MicroFocus Cobol application or hanging
                  when running a MicroFocus Cobol application.

ISSUE/PROBLEM

MicroFocus Cobol applications do not run properly on Access Server unless
properly configured.


SOLUTION

MicroFocus Cobol applications can run on an Access Server but only with
slight modifications to MicroFocus Cobol to take in to account the fact
that Access Server Applications run in protected mode.

For a Runtime System
The MicroFocus default is a bound executable which checks to see if it is
running in protected mode and if it is assumes that it should be OS2.
As Access Server is protected mode but not OS2 you must run the MicroFocus 
runtime system unbound.

In order to do this:     
 - Change the name of RUN.EXE to something else and save.
 - Change the name of RUN.DLE to RUN.EXE

If using BUILD
Use the /r parameter to create a real mode executable.
