| - Microsoft COBOL for MS-DOS, version 2.2 |
Summary: When you compile the program below in Microsoft COBOL Version 2.2, the ACCEPT <identifier> FROM TIME statement always returns “00” in the fractional seconds. The ACCEPT <identifier> FROM TIME statement returns the proper fractional value in Microsoft COBOL Version 3.0. Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Version 2.2. This problem was corrected in Version 3.0.
More Information: The following is a code example: IDENTIFICATION DIVISION. PROGRAM-ID. TIMETEST. ENVIRONMENT DIVISION. DATA DIVISION. WORKING-STORAGE SECTION. 01 WS-TIME. 05 HRS PIC XX. 05 MIN PIC XX. 05 SEC PIC XX. 05 FRC PIC XX. PROCEDURE DIVISION. MAIN-PROGRAM. ACCEPT WS-TIME FROM TIME. DISPLAY WS-TIME. STOP RUN.
