title: Is there actually COBOL in .NET?
body: <p>I was checking Microsoft's Visual Studio page just now and in the advertisements sidebar I suddenly saw an incredible advertisement:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>"Net Express is a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COBOL" rel="noreferrer">COBOL</a> development environment for extending core business processes to the .NET Framework and other distributed platforms." </p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Of course I followed the <a href="http://www.microfocus.com/Products/" rel="noreferrer">link</a> and found a company that does this, but are there places still using COBOL? Does anyone actually use COBOL in .NET frameworks?</p>
