ProCobol 9.2 and Fujitsu PowerCobol 2

[erba]

Hi all,
Have someone of you tried using Oracle Procobol 9.2 with Fujitsu PowerCobol version 7?
I am getting errors on good cobol code that I have never seen with procobol 8.05.
Example :
IDENTIFICATION DIVISION.
PROGRAM-ID. MAIN-FORM.
ENVIRONMENT DIVISION.
CONFIGURATION SECTION.
SPECIAL-NAMES.
DECIMAL-POINT IS COMMA
ENVIRONMENT-NAME IS ENV-VAR-NAME
ENVIRONMENT-VALUE IS ENV-VAR-VALUE.
.......................................1
PCB-S-00400, found simbol "<end-of-source>" instead of
+ - / . : id END-EXEC literal [ ]

It does not like the point at the end of ENV-VAR-VALUE.
Why ???

Thanks.

from Oracle

The DECIMAL-POINT IS COMMA directive must be the last statement in the SPECIAL-NAMES SECTION or precompilation will fail

So change it to be.

ONFIGURATION SECTION.
SPECIAL-NAMES.
ENVIRONMENT-NAME IS ENV-VAR-NAME
ENVIRONMENT-VALUE IS ENV-VAR-VALUE
DECIMAL-POINT IS COMMA.
