OK: First an apology for asking such a question in the midst
of the `C' sea....

We (through no fault of our own!) are looking for a COBOL compiler
to run under System V on a VAX.

It must be a *real* compiler - not a toy one like Ryan-McFarland
products - and be of a fairly high level of implementation. Absolute
"must haves" include
		ACCEPT
		ASCENDING/DESCENDING KEY
		CALL
		COPY
		CD, FD, SD
		DISPLAY
		SEARCH
		SORT/MERGE
		STRING/UNSTRING
along with all the other `normal' stuff.

If you know of any product, please respond by mail. All leads will
be investigated and if there is sufficient (any?) interest, I'll
post results.
