Several people have complained here and in their forums that COBOL is not on their radar.
However, it does seem to find COBOL. I think one problem with searching for "PERFORM VARYING" is that the actual phrase would be PERFORM paragraph-name VARYING, would it not? (I'm not a COBOL expert.) I searched for "PROCEDURE DIVISION" and got at least one actual COBOL program. Interestingly, I got many more "C-type" (did not take the time to sort out whether C, C++, Java, etc.) programs that *process* COBOL programs in some way, apparently (code generators, code analyzers, that sort of thing).

If you go to the advanced search page there is a drop down list of languages, seems there are a fair number there, but COBOL is not one of them. A search of 'PERFORM VARYING' resulted in no COBOL hits that I could find. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
