Does anybody know of a good COBOL compiler for Amiga's? COBOL-74 would
be acceptable if necessary.
I'm tired of boinging and have decided to devote the rest of
my life to accounting systems...

I suspect few people fell for this for more than a couple milliseconds, Dave. You'll have to find something more plausible next year!

You'll have to find something more plausible next year! But it's trickier than it looks. I didn't write it. If _I_ were giving up this business, it certainly wouldn't be to write accounting systems. I mean, COBOL is one of the few languages I don't even slightly know. No, if I were looking for an alternate career, I think I'd become a beach bum.

(Oh God, I can't believe I said that... Someone kill me, quick!) I have a term project due in the next two weeks, and absolutly refuse to learn JCL to do it. The satan worshiping professor is requiring it to be done in COBOL, hence, a PC based COBOL compiler would facilitate things to no end... Anyone have one lying around for the Ami, (or for that matter the IBM. I realize that the Transformer is slower than sin, but for COBOL, who cares?) -- NEVER date a music major.
