Configuring your System 

Before submitting your Microsoft COBOL V2.2 programs to this COBOL
system, you must:

   *   set the following system directives:

       MS"2"

       OSEXT"COB"

       NOOSVS

       NOMF

       NORW

       NOANS85

       NOBOUND

       OLDINDEX

       NOTRUNC

       AUTOLOCK

       NOOPTIONAL-FILE

       PERFORM-TYPE"RM"

       SIGN"EBCDIC"

       RESTRICT"LINE-SEQUENTIAL"

       RESTRICT"SEQUENTIAL"

For further details of these directives, see your COBOL Sytem Reference.

   *   select the Microsoft COBOL Version 2.2 screen handling
       configuration.  (For details of this, see the section on
       configuring ADIS in your COBOL System Reference).

Under DOS and OS/2, this can be done by selecting the Microsoft COBOL
V2.2 option from within the Setup Utility.  Under UNIX it must be done
manually.
