Parameters passed into Wed input form

I have been having trouble for quite a bit now.  The OS is Sun and
Microfocus is the product.  I am new to Cobol so bare with me as I try
to describe the issue.  I am working on a web report program(s).  My
file oits.cbl creates a oits.exe file in which I run.  When ran, it
calls, oidriver.pco, i39l.pco, and a couple of web (html) files.  The
parameters are the start and end dates, and it returns the input form
indicating that the start and end dates are not being passed into the
form to create the file or go to the next step in bring back the
report.  I am running this in Batch mode within Unix for testing.  The
HTML code for the input form returns when the program is executed
instead of the final product.  I have been through all programs and do
not see why the parameters are not being passed.  I went through all
Start date variables and columns.  The parameters inserted into the
database  directly, then called from i39l.pco program.  Has anyone
worked with web programs and multiple files interacting with each other
or has such a problem?  Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have
been working on this and am about to break something!!!  No, not
really, but please help if you can.  Thx
