<SNIP> ("DDName SYSOUT"? Not SYSPRINT? Not SYSTERM? COBOL seems to want to be the misfit. Will it accept an alternate DDNAME list as a second PARM?) <SNIP> COBOL's original implementation has been carried forward from all the way back to OS/MFT as far as I know. This is why some others pointed out COMPILE time options that can be set. You can only change the SYSOUT DD (well, this was back when I was dealing with VS/COBOL) via some slick tricks (like an ASM Subroutine that finds all open DCBs to a particular DD...).
