File not found (9:13) error opening Micro Focus COBOL .dat file
Mon, 05/05/2008 - 10:21 — briansaxiom
Any time I try to open the source file, I get the following error:
Connect Failure
Pervasive Data Parser for Micro Focus CO couldn't connect to the data source. The following error was reported:
File not found (9:13) from GET _INFO
Any ideas?
BTW, Pervasive support: I'm under a tight deadline... need to extract data from this today. I like what I see your product doing and will be purchasing as soon as this gets worked out. If I can't resolve soon need to find another product!

RE: File not found (9:13) error opening Micro Focus COBOL .dat
Hi briansaxiom,
When connecting to Micro Focus COBOL data files with the Data Parser for Micro Focus COBOL, you will need to have both the data file(s) AND the index file(s) in the same folder.
Please let us know if this resolves the error for you, or not.

Nevermind
It is possible it isn't a MF COBOL file... but some weird relative. I converted to C-ISAM and all is good.
