Are you calling your program from within ISPF? You can't use ISPF
services if ISPF isn't running.
I believe that SAMPLIB has examples of displaying panels from COBOL.

VDEFINE for your variables, but RC 20 suggests that your program isn't
running under ISPF, so the VDEFINE would also fail. The ISPF
documentation describes how to run ISPF in batch.
