Others may have already answered, but I can't remember ANY compiler (including OS/VS COBOL) that "translated out" nondisplayable characters from the listing output ... certainly NOT in alphanumeric literals. NOTE WELL: In this case, the error message references "shift-out" or "shift-in" which can EASILY be found via check of the current (and recent) COBOL documentation. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
