Title: Disappointed
Product review: I use COBOL at work and I'm sure the book is comprehensive, but I bought it mainly for the compiler. With close to 1,000 pages I think its a disservice that so little of the book is devoted to using the compiler. Instead of coding I'm experimenting with a byzantine piece of software to deduce how to use it. To add injury to insult I was looking for a "how to" book for the compiler and found I could've saved $10.00 if I had bought it at amazon.
