Pro*COBOL precomp and .pco demos not installed

user521947Aug 1 2006 — edited Aug 3 2006
Hi,

I am new to the Oracle database.
Installing Oracle 9.2, Standard Edition - downloaded Disk1, Disk2 and Disk3 for Windows NT/2000/XP from the OTN downloads.

I have COBOL programmes with embedded SQL - I need the Pro*COBOL precompiler (procob).

It seems like Pro*COBOL did not get installed and I do not have the \procob\ demos folder under %ORACLE_HOME%\precomp\demo\. In fact, the only folder in the \demo\ folder is \sql\.
I have tried compiling my own COBOL programs, which use the COBSQL preprocessor to call the Oracle procob precompiler. I get the error message:

* CSQL-I-018: Invoking ORACLE8 Precompiler/Translator
'procob' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
* CSQL-F-021: Precompiler did not complete -- Terminating


Are Pro*COBOL precompiler and the procob demos installed with the download version of Oracle 9.2? Where can I get them from?

Many thanks
