Roger,

MF is not the better cobol, even it is the most solded.
Try to have the same name in a copy-book and in the working of a program.
No error with MF, same with ACU and impossible to compile with tiny,
for what i have used O-C in a first time.

IMHO, any name in procedure division not present in data division must be
give as an error and any name in double also ... else wich is taken ?
