You create a project for a COBOL application that will be deployed to
.NET in essentially the same way that you create a project for any other COBOL application; the only difference is in the project
template that you use. For a COBOL application that is to be deployed to
.NET you must use one of the templates whose name ends with "(.NET)".
Note: The project templates for .NET are not installed automatically with
Visual COBOL. If the .NET templates are not available you must install them before proceeding. See
To install missing features from the IDE for instructions.

Micro Focus COBOL functionality to include with a .NET project
- If you need to include SQL support in your project there are additional steps you need to perform. See
Configuring a .NET Project for SQL Support for more information.
- If you will be deploying the project to an Azure .NET environment you need to modify the settings of the CALLFH and CALLSORT
directives in order to avoid dependency issues with the C runtime. See
Deploying to Azure .NET in
.NET Known Issues and Restrictions for more information.
