I know this is old, not sure if it got answered or not... To get WORKING-STORAGE (and LOCAL-STORAGE) date items listed in CEEDUMP, compile with the TEST compiler option. This is the same as previous COBOL compilers, but I am noticing customers using different compiler options with COBOL V5/V6 than they used with previous compilers! Not good... Anyway, TEST is much improved with COBOL V5/V6, we put the Debug data in a NOLOAD class segment in the Program Object, so that it is always available, always in sync with the load, and never takes up memory at runtime unless it is needed. An example of when it is needed is when a CEEDUMP is being written/created by LE!
