not if you hire entry level COBOL programmers ... I know ... kinda hard to find them ... most people who code Java are guys right out of school. most people who know COBOL have 20+ years of experience. it's like comparing apples to oranges. they're not the same. you probably are getting much more value for your dollar if you hire a veteran programmer. BUT, if you need an entry level COBOL programmer, our Kapiolani Community College teaches COBOL programming (they use our Test/QA LPAR to teach their classes -- Enterprise COBOL on z/OS 1.9 with CICS TS 3.1). Sorry for the shameless plug ... but ... hire our graduates!!! :-) --Stephen -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Stephen Y.
