From your description it sounds like you are trying to do an 'implied' run,
this is not allowed with the "COMMAND" intrinsic. If you prefix the program
name with "RUN " then you should be okay. Remember that you will have to
Link or PREP your program with "PH" capability.
If you were to use the "HPCICOMMAND" intrinsic you would not have to prefix
the program with "RUN ".

Subject: [HP3000-L] Calling Intrinsic Command from Cobol
Is there a way to specify the HPPath variable to be used when you use Call
Intrinsic "COMMAND" from within cobol? When the session
logs on, a logon UDC is run that sets the HPPATH variable. We use menu
programs to only offer the users access to the few real
programs they need, and call the programs with the intrinsic call. The call
fails, but if you type the name at the command prompt,
it works. I know that we can specify the full path in the call, but we were
hoping for a quick and easy solution rather than having
to find and replace all the calls with the full path. Now that I see this in
writing, I can see that either way we will have to
recompile all the menu programs, but I will still ask the question just for
kicks.
Thanks,
