XML PARSE Statement

In Net Express, the default setting for the XMLPARSE Compiler directive is COMPAT, which causes the XML PARSE statement to return information and events for IBM Enterprise COBOL Version 3. In Visual COBOL, the default is XMLPARSE(XMLSS), which returns information and events for IBM Enterprise COBOL Version 4.

To emulate the Net Express behavior in Visual COBOL, specify the XMLPARSE(COMPAT) Compiler directive option.

For a summary of the differences in event information between XMLPARSE(XMLSS) and XMLPARSE(COMPAT), see the Special Registers topic in your Visual COBOL documentation.
