Unfortunately that seems to be for PDS only not PDSE.  Looks good though 
but not much use now that we're entirely PDSE.

Ken,

You can look at the signature bytes of the load module and determine the 
compiler version. Check this out

In the old days, as far as I remember though I can't prove it, you used to 


be able to look at a load library member, check for a certain string (e.g. 


C2 mm/dd/yy hh:mm:ss) and establish that the module - or even modules had 
been compiled as COBOL II.

Wit the advent of program objects on PDSEs and Enterprise COBOL we don't 
appear to have that luxury.  Does anyone know of any way to identify the 
language type of modules.  We have File-AID at this site and it can 
identify the CSECTs within a module but it doesn't seem to be able to tell 


me what COBOL version was used 

As we prepare to establish Enterprise COBOL 5.1 as the default, I've been 
asked by developers if it is possible to give them a list of what programs 


were compiled with which compiler and given that our "load libraries" are 
now almost 100% PDSE it's proving tricky.

Any thoughts?
