B.4.2.5 COPY Insert Statement
The compiler listing files for a Compaq COBOL program and a Compaq COBOL
for OpenVMS VAX program differ when a COPY statement inserts text in the
middle of a line.
In the following two compiler listing files, LCOP5D.LIB contains ‘‘O’’. The Compaq
COBOL compiler keeps the same line and inserts the COPY file contents below
the source line. The Compaq COBOL for OpenVMS VAX compiler splits the
original source line into parts.
