I will assume that you are on a unix system, and are trying to run in the animator. That at least is the most common situation in which customers run into this problem. Check out procob.mk for a target called 'rtsora'. This is a cobol runtime environment (similar to 'cobrun') which contains, among other things, the function SQLADR. Use rtsora instead of cobrun or anim to get this to work. Received on Tue Sep 27 1994 - 18:03:06 CET
