~~~         End-If

Well, for really complicated processes, I like to see a lot of perform thru
exit (and goto) verbs.
Maybe just because GOTO was forbidden in so many scenarios - goto goto
goto.....

Never used the End-if in Cobol...
Since I never knew when I was going to get a compiler that does not honor
it...just didn't get too comfy with it.
A shop full of old Cobol will break anyone from using ending scope
delimiters.
Its like fighting a tide.
I don't think I am an old fogie, but I always seem to work on old code more
days than not.

Just kidding about the goto's but PERFORM THRU is my best friend.
Just some thoughts....
