    ****************************************************************
    A new error condition was added to a Cobol copybook whose name
    contains underscores. IBM Enterprise COBOL for z/OS V4.1 and
    earlier do not support the use of underscores.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The name of the error condition has been changed to use hyphens
    rather than underscores.
