USE GIVING

IBM DOS/VS COBOL has a form of the USE statement in the DECLARATIVES section that normally is not recognized by ACUCOBOL-GT:

     USE AFTER STANDARD ERROR PROCEDURE ON file-name GIVING
           data-name-1 [data-name-2]

This form is accepted by ACUCOBOL-GT when the "-Cv" option is in effect. See section 6.6, "USE Statement" in Book 3, "Reference Manual," for the format and rules governing the usage of this statement. See Appendix J.5 for the IBM DOS/VS COBOL error codes.
