"COBOL Language Reference" Refer to "Compile Options" in Chapter 5. | References to other publications or sections within publications are in quotation marks. |
We have tried to make all of our examples position-sensitive. However, given the restrictions of the size of the page, in some examples we have not been able to accomplish this. You should be aware that NetCOBOL is a position-sensitive language, unless you specify that your source is free format by using the SRF compiler option.
The term national language or national in this manual indicates double byte character languages, such as Japanese, Korean, or Chinese. Functions that are only available in the national language version of this system are indicated by [*XXXXXX*].
