Giridhar,

The $SET and $IF are used to set and test compiler switches for
conditional compilation. Here is a link to the COBOLII/iX docs in
Appendix B which describe the preprocessor commands.

Is there any significance to "$" in 7th column in HP-COBOL?
Specific information regarding $IF and  $SET  is requested...


Thanks & regards
Giridhar.
