Thomas, Barry,
Sorry to bother you again. Any chance you think/know that RDz 7.6 would run
under XP virtual machine? If I downloaded/installed 7.6 (from SAC) do you
think IBM may have removed the COBOL compiler?
Cheers,
Graham

Graham,
The issue is not which version of RDz but rather which version of Windows.
Even with RDz 7.6 the COBOL compiler would not install on Windows 7. IBM
has not made, plus as I understand it, a COBOL compiler which works on
Windows 7. I am in the same position, but do have a System z to connect
to as a test platform.
I too wish I could test locally on Windows 7.
Cheers,
Thomas Dunlap

Hello,
I have an old XP laptop with RDz 7.1.1.5 and TXSeries 7.1.0.4 and moved
to a new Lenovo with Windows 7. There is no need for host connection, my
development world is as a standalone, compile/link/run COBOL programs and
COBOL/CICS transaction programs on the Lenovo is the critical need.
But I understand that Rational Developer for System z V8.5 does not 'do'
COBOL on Windows 7 so am thinking my new world should be Rational
Developer for zEnterprise V8.0.3 and would appreciate any comments/advice
about that.
