Hi,

There is a requirement (given below) in our project to use hyperlink in a cobol program.

The customer has to be able to go to detailed statement from a group statement by clicking on detailed account number and back to list of accounts by clicking on a link within the detailed account statement.

Please let me know how to create hyperlink in a cobol program.

Thanks,

cobol is not your limitation. it is the mainframe.

the requirement was written without knowledge.

from a 3270 screen, you need to use cursor sensitive code to determine the next selection.

this is something that cics programmers have been doing for years, 'drilling down thru reports to detail'.

you will have to design your sceen, providing options for deeper level display.
