COBOL Question
Re: COBOL Question
COBOL is generally a mainframe language. However, there are some special implementations developed about 15 years ago, like Micro Focus COBOL, which were designed to run on PCs.Mac wrote:In the ENVIRONMENT DIVISION, CONFIGURATION SECTION.

However, the Micro Focus version that I saw back in 1995, ran under Unix, and not Windows. They might also have a Windows version, and in which case, I assume you would specifiy your Windows version in the Environment Division.
Good luck, and regards..... Moneo

I think it was a descriptive piece of information hence, could have any name.
