What is DCD?
DCD (Data Correlation and Documentation System) is an Automated COBOL Software
Maintenance System . DCD was created in 1975 with less that 20,000 lines
of code. Over time it continues to evolve; currently this user friendly
and commanding software contains over 150,000 lines of code within more
than 135 program modules. DCD has expanded to a comprehensive line of
COBOL products that promise today's COBOL programmer the most comprehensive, lightning
fast and powerful utilities ever created for COBOL.
How Does DCD Work?
DCD sharply diminishes that time commitment by providing the COBOL maintenance
staff with effective, computerized tools with which to accomplish their
mission. It does so by producing comprehensive, accurate, and timely
automated documentation, which was previously prepared manually, or not at
all.
DCD makes it
possible to solve both Direct and Indirect references with one page flip
in COBOL!
The Direct
References are put in a Narrative Format that is readily self-explanatory.
The hidden Indirect
references appear as "Changed", "Tested", and "Used” in the narrative.
Because we have already
created what the programmer must labor endlessly to compile, you won't
believe how much quicker
and easier DCD can make your COBOL program analysis. Flexibility, logic,
cross-referencing; on a whole new
level, we put all the pieces together for you into a unique and
time-saving feature.

DCD Saves Time &
Money in COBOL programming!
DCD, our COBOL
software is all about
saving you time and money as your business grows. The narrative in
our ALTERNATE COMPILE REPORT for the Mainframe is the most sought after
part of our COBOL software package due to its time saving design. The muscle power of our
COBOL software is obvious in its handling of nested COPY's, reference
modification, DL1, CICS and SQL. From and To Field positions are added in
decimal and/or hexadecimal. We handle COPY's with the SUPPRESS feature in
a unique and resourceful manner. For COBOL on the Mainframe, DCD runs smoothly in
systems using ENDEAVOR or any other software. We offer nine separate
condensed cross-reference reports, to replace lengthy compiler
cross-reference reports. Our most used feature is our COMPILE MODE where
we replace the Compile Listing with our own sophisticated reports to
really make things easy for your business.
How Does DCD Save Money with COBOL programming?
• Eliminates back and forth tracing for each field.
• Narrative is completely unique in the industry.
• Completely shows every direct reference.
• Also provides indirect references.
• Allows analysis on multiple COBOL programs at once.
