Domenico,

So is this, just also has SQL in it SQLCBLLE. Sorry about calling you by
your last name, I tried compiling with the declaration as you said and the
compiler just throws more errors:

Finucci,

That was my first thought but look at this! May be something wrong wit SEU,
certainly something wrong with me! :-)

sensitive nada!

Has anyone used data areas in COBOL? I am running into an odd problem, here
is a snippet of it:

                          Create Data Area (CRTDTAARA)



 Type choices, press Enter.



 Data area  . . . . . . . . . . . > DRDACNT       Name

   Library  . . . . . . . . . . .     *CURLIB     Name, *CURLIB

 Type . . . . . . . . . . . . . . > *DEC          *DEC, *CHAR, *LGL, *DDM

 Length:

   Length . . . . . . . . . . . .   13            1-2000

   Decimal positions  . . . . . .   0             0-9

 Initial value  . . . . . . . . .   0

 Text 'description' . . . . . . .   Just a transaction counter




   Special-Names.
     Trans-Count is Data-Area
     .
  Input-Output Section.
.
.
      1 WS-TRANS-COUNT.
        2 TRANS-COUNT          Pic S9(13) Packed-Decimal Value 0.

      1 WS-MISC-VARIABLES.
        2 WS-WORK-LIB             Pic  X(10) Value Space.
        2 WS-NEW-RECORD.
.
.
        Accept WS-TRANS-COUNT from Data-Area
           for "DRDACNT" library WS-WORK-LIB
.
        Display WS-TRANS-COUNT upon Data-Area
           for "DRDACNT" library WS-WORK-LIB

         Message . . . . :   Mnemonic-name of type LOCAL-DATA expected;
           'DATA-AREA' found. Statement ignored.

Now what is odd other than the above (which I may have wrong!) is in SEU. If
I put the cursor on either of the "SPECIAL-NAMES." subsection or the
declaration in it, SEU will show an error:

Syntax error detected at 'TRANS-COUNT'.
