Shamil, Oh yes ... JCL! I must have repressed those memories. The only training we had was a stack of IBM manuals - a difficult way to learn. Everyone I know fell asleep at least once while in "training". I had the honor of not only falling asleep while reading an IBM manual, but falling out of my chair unto the floor :-) We really have come a long ways.

And JCL of course... > COBOL Coding sheets .... punch cards Coding sheets - yes, that were funny to fill that coding sheets to pass them to operators to get punch cards punched. But that were rare occasions here - I usually got prepared punch cards by myself using noisy punchcard "punching" machines... I have programmed mainly using IBM 360/370 Macro Assembler and some PL/1 and FORTRAN. IBM 360/370 Macro Assembler was the best of macro assemblers ever existed I believe... > - We have come a long ways! Yes. And we're still proceeding not bad I suppose ! :) Thank you. -- Shamil Tue, 3 Apr 2012 14:01:45 -0500 от "Brad Marks" <BradM at blackforestltd.com>: > Shamil, > > Those were the days! > > IBM 360 Mod 40 (Year = 1975) > > COBOL Coding sheets .... punch cards > > We got one compile per day - made for some serious "desk checking" > > Core dumps / Registers / Displacements - We have come a long ways! > > :-) > > > Brad > <<< snip >>> -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
