All Reserved Words
This is an alphabetic list of all reserved words in HP COBOL. It includes new HP COBOL reserved
words (additions to COBOL 74), words reserved by the COBOL 2002 standard (indicated with
an asterisk), and reserved words found only in HP COBOL (HP additions to COBOL). COBOL
2002 words are reserved by the ECOBOL compiler only when the STANDARD 2002 directive is
specified. The MIGRATION-CHECK directive causes the compiler to flag these words.
