Exactly the problem the fix was not a big issue just the people with the skills to change what needed to be fixed
Also AT&T still uses cobol systems my Uncle is a cobol programmer currently his job consists of teaching new young programmers Cobol to support frame relay systems
Our program may be dated but I can honsetly say we have not had any problems with this system we update around the core program about every six months (support of IP based printing etc) and upgrade to new servers every two years this system also interfaces with our Apache webserver and two SQL servers to provide active invintory and ordering capabilities to our customers...Using ICE.TCP to interface with the system from workstations. Looking at SAP or Citrix solutions for our system change...anyone have insight on these?
