Debugging lines that start with D are activiated by a COBOL clause: WITH DEBUGGING MODE, on the PROGRAM-ID statement. You could have that clause in only the program you are inerested in. The whole application would have to to be run with the LE DEBUG option, but only programs that have WITH DEBUGGING MODE will activate the debugging lines.
