From: Joe Zitzelberger on 17 Apr 2008 00:54 I found a bunch on Amazon -- I ordered one for $0.41 to review, but I'll go get the other 50 if it will work. It was #5,040,193 in sales, so I think they will still be there. I am a bit leery of using OO-Cobol to teach the concepts, as the shop EXPLICITLY locks out the use of OO-Cobol and has ever since IBM introduced it. I don't want to step on any toes. But I will if it is a good book. Thanks for the pointer Bill. Regards, Joe In article <a5VLj.174423$uN4.76665(a)fe07.news.easynews.com>, "William M.
