I'm a sucker for the good ol' days, so I think I've found my niche.

    Well I believe Fujitsu NetCobol for windows .NET and VisualStudio is still available. It has pretty good compatibility with VS COBOL II, OS/VS COBOL and Micro Focus COBOL. I used Micro Focus quite a bit in years past before I drank the koolaid that was C/C++ and a little Java if there were C++ haters.

    I then voted to smother COBOL lovers in their sleep. It was the only way to be sure followed by genuflecting to the memory of Admiral amazing Grace Hopper while holding my nanosecond wire containing her DNA.
