3.00 3.00a OS/2

Summary: The OS2API.DOC file incorrectly states that double-word parameters should be defined with a PIC 9(9) COMP-5 clause. Double-word parameters should be defined with a PIC 9(8) COMP-5 clause. This correction applies to the OS2API.DOC file on the release disk for the Microsoft COBOL Compiler Versions 3.0 and 3.0a for MS OS/2.
