Enhanced ACCEPT and DISPLAY Statements

Two of the existing Enhanced ACCEPT and DISPLAY settings available through Adis have additional values, which are aimed at RM/COBOL users migrating their source code to Visual COBOL. The new values are:

  • Emulation of RM/COBOL-85 style data entry for numeric data entry on ACCEPT statements.
  • Emulation of an RM/COBOL backspace in free format fields when in replacement editing mode, in that deleted characters are removed and characters to the right are shifted left, the same as when in insertion editing mode.

For more information on how to set these values, refer to Configuring Enhanced ACCEPT and DISPLAY
