I just tried to assemble and run the COBANALZ program, but got S206-04 on multiple libraries...not sure what to do with that, as I haven't got time to troubleshoot this.

Enterprise COBOL "signature" now uses "CEE" not C1 or C2 (actually 
X'01C3C5C5').  Need to find the LE PPA2 data block and from there find the compiler timestamp, 
which is followed by the version / release / modlevel bytes (e.g. 20190924143846050200, which says 
version 05, release 02, modlevel 00).  See the code in COBANALZ in CBT 321 for the gory details of 
how to get there.

Not sure if the compiler-generated IDR info has that, but I have not looked 
either.

Cobol has a signature, at least used to have, in the load module date& time. C1 
for os/vs Cobol, C2 for cobol 2. I believe ibm maintains same signature for ent. 
Version.

 Sorry, ignore that comment.  "FM" here is CA FileMaster, not IBM
 FileManager.

 Apologies for my confusion.

 Don't know what version of FM you are using, but we have FM V10.0 here
 and FM 3.10 is their "COMPARE" utility, no sub-menus.

 FM 3.13 is "LOADINFO", is that the feature you are talking about?  I
 ran that on a COBOL V6.2 program object and no COBOL compiler
 information was generated, only binder dates/attributes.

 CBT file 321 does a better job for this kind of inquiry.

 First, Filemanager, then 3.10 (and then 1-View).  It's not on the ISPF
 Utilities menu.  I've no way of knowing if or how to start Filemanager
 on anything but my own systems.  You might have to poke around, or ask
 the Powers-That-Be.  Or you may not have it, or of course, have
 sysadmins that assume you're not worthy of it.

 FM is mainly for browsing & editing VSAM files, but that Load Module
 utility (FM.3.10.1) is a hidden gem.
