> What Cobol compiler are you using?

    It's cobol700 - a shareware ANSI Standard compiler. Haven't used it in
anger, but it has its own IDE. I did buy one called FS COBOL about twenty
years ago. That was a level II compiler and was brilliant value at about
œ30.00, but I haven't heard from them recently. They were called
Fortransoft, and I still use their Fortran 77. It still works perfectly
satisfactorily. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

    If I were serious about using these old compilers I might think about a
32 bit version - but as long as they run .... :-)

Best Wishes,
Bill.
