Do you mean the example in the HP online Cobol Reference Manual?  This
one?

------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------
Assume the source program contains the following text before the
replacement:[REV END]

             01   (FIRST)-RECORD        PIC X(80).
[REV BEG]

After the following REPLACE statement[REV END]

     REPLACE COPY-MODULE REPLACING ==(FIRST)== BY ==INPUT==.

the resultant text is:

             01   INPUT-RECORD          PIC X(80).
