What is the significance of the PROGRAM-ID paragraph? If
this name doesnt match with the name of the COBOL program,
does it make a difference? Is the name specified in the
PROGRAM-ID paragraph used as a name for the load module or
any such thing?

Answer Posted / pbbg

Load module will be created based on the member name which
you have used for creating code.Whether you give program id
name as member name or different, but load will be created
on the member name.
