Hi I am attempting to invoke a Cobol(PROGA) program from a C program (PROGC) which works fine. All of the STATIC calls to other Cobol programs from PROGA works as well. The moment I attempt to call a Cobol program DYNAMICALLY from PROGA, it results in the following error :- **** Escape executed outside of TRY block; CODE = FF830068 (UNWIND 9). ABORT: /PROGC/PROGC NM SYS a.00a9f4a0 dbg_abort_trace+$24 NM USER cb9.018078d8 proga+$a9c NM PROG a24.0000ee18 server+$980 The nature of the application requires this call to be dynamic. Can anyone explain this problem? How can I solve this?
