Restriction: This topic applies to Windows environments (local development) only.

The COBOL application that you use in this tutorial is the Schedule demonstration application. The application executables are installed with Visual COBOL in the %PUBLIC%\Documents\Micro Focus\Visual COBOL\Samples\Interface Mapping Toolkit\ServiceInterfaces\ScheduleDemo directory by default.

The Schedule demonstration application is a system for scheduling and viewing appointments. The application uses the following source and data members:

schedule.cbl
common.cpy
common_78.cpy
common_ex.cpy
common_ws.cpy
consultants.cpy
customerinfo.cpy
stores.cpy
appoint.dat
consultants.dat
customers.dat

Using the application, you can either schedule a new appointment, or look up an existing appointment. We recommend that you review the application source code to become familiar with how it works.
