Your PC users are probably using GNU Fortran or equivalent, and any new code 
they write will probably not compile on VSFORTAN.

Subject: Re: z/OS use of "legacy" programming languages

I know there's still a VS FORTRAN compiler on a machine I work on - is it still 
supported, or does it just "work".  Haven't seen updates for it in forever;  we 
are running down what was compiled with it that may still be running. All the 
important stuff moved to a FORTRAN supplied by another vendor that runs on PCs 
or other platforms; what's left would be dumb little utility-type programs that 
some user is loathe to turn loose of (and those users can probably tell you how 
they used to punch the input cards for the program..... )
