In
Net Express, the default setting for the XMLPARSE Compiler directive is COMPAT, which causes the XML PARSE statement to return information
and events for IBM Enterprise COBOL Version 3. In
Visual COBOL, the default is XMLPARSE(XMLSS), which returns information and events for IBM Enterprise COBOL Version 4.
To emulate the
Net Express behavior in
Visual COBOL, specify the XMLPARSE(COMPAT) Compiler directive option.
For a summary of the differences in event information between XMLPARSE(XMLSS) and XMLPARSE(COMPAT), see the
Special Registers topic in your
Visual COBOL documentation.
