I have Micro Focus Visual COBOL 2.2 (Personal Edition) Version 2.2.00151 with Visual Studio 2012 running under Windows 8.1, and all is well
I have written a specific backup program in COBOL that copies certain nominated files to a backup holding area on my hard drive, and it works fine and performs date and time stamping along the way
I'd like to have an icon i can click that will automatically start Vis Cobol and run the backup program (and then VC shut down?)
Somehow, I recall I have seen something along these lines happening while I have been clicking away in the past but I can't find how to get it to happen again
i googled for the answer but didn't get anything in the MF doco that I felt was what I wanted
Does anyone know how I can set up an icon to click and automation is started?
Or, any alternate ideas I could use for specific backups?
Thanks in advance
Paul
