Subject: Which way to go?


Message:
Hello,

I have an intrest to do some Cobol coding.

While searching for a free COBOL compiler I bounched onto a list of almost a dozen.

Which compiler should I use?

one of the free open source ones or one of the commercial ones which have gone free like Fujitsu's & NetExpress just to name 2?

Hi!

If you buy a copy of the book 'The Power of COBOL"
it contains a Net Express CD in the back and is a
great COBOL reference as well, which if you are learning COBOL could not hurt!
