Hi,
I've recently changed from RPG to Cobol, which involved a change in jobs 
funnily enough!
I've got a novel question:
I have been told by my colleagues that in the (very) old Cobol36 code that 
we still have, it is only possible to debug by inserting displays into the 
code and compiling it.
-very limiting!
Thus, by their reckoning, we are not allowed the STRDBG command. (although 
STRDBG is allowed in RPGII)

This is very tiring, and takes a lot of time for, what should be, a simple 
debug.

Is it possible to use the STRDBG command for debugging Cobol36 ?

If so, how?

Regards,

Brian.

Oh, we are running V4R3, if that makes any difference..
