The OC COBOL Manual written by Gary Cutler is so good that I hesitate to mention one omission. Most of us don't use sections in the PROCEDURE DIVISION any more, if we ever did. But there are still older programs around that used that construct. Gary mentions them only in connection with the SORT verb. The construct deserves a separate mention.
I do not agree. A well structured cobol source might need "blocks" execution. Sections are for that purpose. Marcello Marsile
