(Sent to comp.lang.cobol with various CC's)
The *APPROVED* ISO 2002 COBOL Standard is available from the ANSI online
store at:
http://webstore.ansi.org/ansidocstore/product.asp?sku=ISO%2FIEC+1989%3A2
002
for the bargain <G !!!> price of $215.00 U.S. Dollars.
This will get you a PDF file - with NO permission to further distribute
it or even copy "significant" text into other documents without prior
permission.
If you are outside the US, you might (???) want to look at purchasing
this
from ISO. See:
http://www.iso.ch/iso/en/CatalogueDetailPage.CatalogueDetail?CSNUMBER=28
805&ICS1=35&ICS2=60&ICS3=
This has the same copy/distribution restrictions - but only (???) costs
348.00 Swiss Francs. You may find that your "own" national standards
body
sells it (also) in "local currency".
NOTE WELL:
In addition to the copyright statement within the text, make certain
you read AND UNDERSTAND the "EULA" (End User Licensing Agreement) when
"purchasing" either of these documents.
