COBSW - Where can I find settings for

[gbell]

Does anyone know where I can find what values can be assigned to COBSW. I am particularly interested in giving the MIMS batch programs more sort space and I believe this can be set via the COBSW. I know this used to be an option under the Mincom TP. We are running MIMS 4.3 on HP with Oracle, Autosys and Tuxedo.
Regards

Greg

The information is available in the Microfocus manuals.
I found a link on the internet for you

I believe you are looking for
s Sort Memory Specifies the amount of memory used as internal workspace when performing a SORT operation

In my Microfocus Cobol directory (/opt/cobol/cobdir/docs/html/*) there are a series of html documents that cover the COBSW variables rather well (particularly as they pertain to the HP-UX environment).
