Because I want the Prog to start always in its initial state. But ok, I could do an INITIALIZE to all my WORKING STORAGE stuff. >Is the COBOL program compiled with THREAD? In your >multi-threaded application you will need this. [It No, it isn't. THREAD is only available with Enterprise COBOL and we don't have this. But my application starts a "CALL-COBOL-Thread" that gets notified by all other threads that a COBOL-Prog needs to be executed. So I ensure that always the same Thread fetches and enters the COBOL-Prog. >can still run in non-threaded apps, although it will >be slower.] Slower is evil ;-> I've also tried to use fork()/execl() and spawn() but all in vain. spawn() and execl() always returned -1 and I don't know what I'm doing wrong :-( Bye Michael ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
