DISPLAY statement and screen displays
I need some help. I am writing a COBOL program which utilizes a
menu routine. My compiler is CA REALIA II COBOL v1.1.25 and I am trying to
get screen displays such as BLINKING, REVERSE VIDEO, UNDERLINE to work with
no ado. I even had to create my own clear screen routine using two nested
loops as I cannot get that to work either.
My format is:
DISPLAY XX-XX-XX line 1, column 1, blinking.
^^^^^^^^
doesn't like this!
Please, use e-mail to reply to me as I would like to get a response ASAP.
Thanks!
