I have a copy of the ILE COBOL reference summary on my hard drive.  If
you want to pull it down from the IBM site the document number is
SX09-1317-01.

Michael.

Thanks for pointing out the "this release" section.  I missed that one.
I
guess I was looking for the format to be the same as the WDSC online
version
I have been trying to use.  It is listed differently.  That is why I did
not
think they were the same manual.  I really appreciate the response.

BTW, have you seen an ILE COBOL summary manual in PDF format?  I know
they
used to print one for OPM, and it was handy to have.  Had all the
reserved
words, functions, what the copy statements did, definitions of status
codes
for the file status - it was all there in compressed, easy to use
format.

Jim,

Yes, they way they titled the sections is confusing.  They now have a
section titled "What's New in This Release?" which is for V5R4.  I
suppose
it's accurate the way they do it, but I also find that I can easily
miss
it when it's titled that way.  But then again, naming things in
documentation is not a task I envy.

btw - sorry about the "Here's the ..." comments.  I had thought of
sending
you the PDFs directly, but then when I reviewed them I realized they
were
probably what you already had and changed back to replying on the
mailing
list.  As usual shuffling a dozen things at once, I messed up on
correcting my text.
