We have used a socket connection that calls a COBOL program compiled in
dynamic mode.  The COBOL program only opens the database on the first call,
then they stay open until the program receives a message to close.

Hi

Happy new year to everyone !

I have an issue and I am not sure that I am addressing it properly because
it does not work.

I have a subroutine which is being called by an RPC program , this routine
calls another funtion which requires some open database's. I dont want to
open the two databases everytime I call this function. So what I did was
write another program which opened up the databases and fed the open names
into a message file.

The message file is then read by the sub routine when it is started up ,
the
only problem with this is that it does not work. Is this because the open
process is owned by the original program. If so what would be the best way
of doing this ?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Regards

Peter Burgess
