Hi, I am having very old cobol program written in Micro Focus Cobol. Due to some hardware problem in hard disk I had to transfer the complete program with Data from old hard Disk to New Hard Disk. When I run the program in new hard disk I get the following error message : "Data integrity mismatch.Kindly reorganize files" and the program does not run. The original programmer who has written the program is not traceble and I have no knowled e of Cobol. Can anyone guide me how to solve the above error.

I have Micro Focus Personal Cobol on my PC. I am not sure what differences there between this and regular Micro Focus Cobol. I just instaleld Micro Focus Personal Cobol on my computer a few weeks ago. I had problems with the binary data from a program I wrote ten years ago. I ended up redoing the program to read regular text data until I figure this out. Does the program itself run? Is it trying to read some data and having problems with it? Do you have Micro Focus Cobol installed on the new computer? Can you bring up the IDE for it? You may have to step through the program to find out where it is having the problem.
