Had to laugh at IBM saying "We're giving away COBOL training to help with this!" - right, just what we need, newbie COBOL programmers fixing mission-critical systems.

A very weak attempt to jump on the bandwagon, I'm afraid. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
