>COBOL is more alive today than it was 10 years ago! >Demise indeed...
Having recently been downsized from a COBOL shop, I agree. Some of them can create COBOL code to do things faster than I can do it in SAS. And, I have been doing SAS for almost 30 years. Long live COBOL (or for Galactica fans -- the Lords of [K]COBOL). I haven't written more than two programmes in COBOL in over 25 years, but I can see it's not going away. - Too busy driving to stop for gas! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
