Is it possible to have 2 Identification Division or 2 Program-ID in a single COBOL program?

I heard that it may be possible using COMMON Clause.

Please confirm me.

Thanks a lot!!! icon_smile.gif

Did you consider consulting COMMON in the Language Reference? Does reading now indicate that you necessarily need COMMON?

If you mean nested cobol programs then YES otherwise NO.

Why don't you look in the manuals by yourself?
