A_MSSQL_PASSWD configuration variable

The variable A_MSSQL_PASSWD should be set to the password assigned to the database account associated with the user name specified by A_MSSQL_LOGIN.

Examples

If the account with the user name in A_MSSQL_LOGIN has the associated password CW021535, specify:

A_MSSQL_PASSWD  CW021535

in the ACUCOBOL-GT runtime configuration file.

For better security, you can accept a password from the user during program execution; set the A_MSSQL_PASSWD variable based on the response:

ACCEPT RESPONSE NO-ECHO.
SET ENVIRONMENT "A_MSSQL_PASSWD" TO RESPONSE.

Note: If the user has been set up without a password, this variable need not be set.
