This wouldn't be by any chance RM Cobol would it?  There used to be two
Cobol compilers for the 400.  The other one was called RM Cobol.  With that
version you didn't use DDS.  There were a lot of different things you could
do in the code itself to affect the display of the fields - quite
different.  Haven't seen it since ?1985?.  By the way - can you tell what
version of OS/400 is the last to support RM Cobol?

I have a client in San Antonio using a package called JobScope for custom
manufacturers. It's entirely a COBOL application, since it came from an HP
platform originally. The client does not have the source code, nor do they
have the COBOL/400 compiler. The software company does all their mods and
ships them for installation.

I understand that the software also runs on an NT platform, but is still
written in COBOL.
