Classification: Public We do have a source manager (Panvalet in this particular case), but this is a big-bang approach, so it's a bulk exercise rather than piece-meal.
The CBT is a possibility, though I'll have to look at that from home as I'm prevented from downloading useful things like ZIP files from the internet at work!

Or could you use ISPF Search function (batch or foreground)? Or use something like IPOUPDTE (just to scan not to update)? I think there are many options. Have you looked on CBTTAPE.ORG to see if there are any COBOL Source scanners?
