I'm looking for an utility that is able to produce a kind of extended
cross reference of the data division of a COBOL program. It shows for
each data field by which other data fields it is modified and which data
fields are modified by it. It should work like this:

Given a procedure code like

        MOVE  FIELD-A TO FIELD-B
        COMPUTE FIELD-C = FIELD-B * FIELD-D
        ADD FIELD-C TO FIELD-A FIELD-B

the utility should produce a cross-reference-list like

        FIELD-A modified by FIELD-C (ADD)
        FIELD-B modified by FIELD-A (MOVE), FIELD-C (ADD)
        FIELD-C modified by FIELD-B (COMPUTE), FIELD-D (COMPUTE)
        FIELD-D not modified at all

        FIELD-A modifies FIELD-B (MOVE)
        FIELD-B modifies FIELD-C (COMPUTE)
        FIELD-C modifies FIELD-A (ADD), FIELD-B (ADD)
        FIELD-D modifies FIELD-C (COMPUTE)

and so on, I think you know what I mean. I would be thankful for any
hints to a suitable prgram.
Please contact me at mertens.b...@t-online.de.

Thanks

Norbert Mertens

Sounds like you are getting to work on a year 2000 project.

Most compilers will provide this kind of cross reference.  Which one are
you using?
