[comp.sys.ibm.pc] More on COBOL/2 problem

ahk@i.cc.purdue.edu (Louis Lang) (05/19/88)

Well, since I have been *totally* underwhelmed by responses (both from
the newsgroup and IBM so far) this is what I've discovered about my
previous posting (about the alarm beeping every time a FIELD is written
to the screen):  There is a conflict having BOTH a REPORT SECTION and
a SCREEN SECTION in the same source module.  Removing the REPORT SECTION
allows the screen to display 'normally'.  Now it seems I have to pass
a lot of things through LINKAGE SECTIONs to the module that contains
the report definitions.  I wonder if any conflicts will show there...
(0.5 :-))   I expect as many responses to this posting as I got from the
other one. (zero).  Just thought someone might like to know.  (I love
breaking new ground.  IBM seemed surprised that this runs under DOS 3.3)

Ciao 
P.S - This is MicroFocus Cobol, in  case anyone is interested.
