Shouldn't be an issue. We're running 2.4 and just disabled our Cobol 4.2 compiler to keep people from trying to use it. We also just finished migrating our Cobol code from 4.2 and Cobol 2. We didn't recompile any of that code when we migrated to 2.4.

They are shutting it down. But they have mentioned an "archive solution" for ??? apps which might not make the "hard" decommission date. Their latest idea is basically outsourcing to an "on demand" service. It is running 2.4 . I am curious if they might run into problem with old COBOL code with the new LE. It's just curiosity because I will not be involved, supposedly. I am not sure about EasyTrieve Plus either. Thanks for any thoughts. My actual work for them will end, supposedly end 1Q23, but my employment & pay will last until 1Aug23, regardless (a kind of severance). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The information contained in this message is confidential, protected from disclosure and may be legally privileged.
