To add a folder to the project's Copybook Paths

When you first create a project, Visual COBOL sets its COPYPATH directive to point to the project directory. Any of the subfolders of the project, however, are not automatically added to the locations being searched for copybooks. This may cause the build to fail if any these files are stored in the subfolders.

To ensure that the build will succeed, you must manually add any subfolder that includes either copybooks, include or macro files to the project's Copybook Paths. You can do this in one of the following ways:

• Right-click the folder in Solution Explorer, click Add and then click Add Folder to Copybook Paths:

Alternatively:

1. Open the project's properties and click the Copybook Paths tab.
2. Add the subfolder name to this tab and save the changes.
