Introduction to COBOL Source Information

COBOL Source Information (CSI) provides a quick and easy way of providing you with information about your program when you are working on it. You enter a query in the CSI query control and CSI returns the results of the query in the Micro Focus Code Analysis window.

CSI queries can provide a wide range of information about the makeup of a program, such as:

• Where data items are defined, used, and modified.
• Where paragraphs and sections are executed.
• Which procedures a paragraph or section executes.
• Where subprograms are called.
• The copybook structure of your program.
