Someone was posting about problems with doing this on comp.lang.cobol. He could do the non-OO COBOL to OO COBOL call and the OO COBOL to Java INVOKE but it would not work non-OO COBOL calling OO COBOL invoking Java. Could you post details on doing it both here and on the usenet newsgroup comp.lang.cobol.
