I'm on a project that requires 60 screens and as many reports be generated
and programmed as fast as possible. Usually I'd use a screen generator
(such as C-Scape) to prototype the screens and then convert to runnable.
In this case there is a requirement to integrate with REALIA COBOL 4.0 on
a PC and the people here do NOT want to learn C (grr). Is there a COBOL
equivalent?

Reports are also being generated in COBOL - line for line from BTRIEVE
accessible data. Any suggestions on how to get out of the "dark ages"?
