Program Identification and Data-names
The DG Interactive COBOL system allows the Program-ID and a data item in
that program to have the same name. However, this COBOL system does not
allow the use of the same name for the Program-ID and a data item in a
program, requiring instead that each should be unique. We recommend that
you either change the program-name in the Program-ID and in any programs
that call this program, or change the name of the data item.
