As I said in another note Terry, I was assuming that Joe was doing a COBOL
version of his webulation stuff and didn't need a "real" display file.  In
fact you can do I/O without a display file by a) Using the ACCEPT/DISPLAY
support which was enhanced some time back to give a degree of PC "flavor".
Or b) by using the DSM APIs which work just fine in COBOL.
