iGuest 3 Report post Posted June 4, 2011 Free Cobol CompilerAn Introduction To COBOLThere is an excellent COBOL compiler FREE at ADD1TOCOBOL.Com. Version 1 lacks Report Writer support, but Version 2 which is scheduled to come out in June or July of this year is supposed to have the support included.I have used vs 1 for several months now and find it (while finicky) to be a great compiler. -reply by Dale Hermann Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
