OS/VS COBOL accepted the NOTE statement, but IBM Enterprise COBOL does not. Therefore all NOTE statements should be
replaced by standard comment lines.
Noncompliant code example
IDENTIFICATION DIVISION.
PROGRAM-ID. foo.
PROCEDURE DIVISION.
* Non-Compliant
NOTE This is a comment.
* This is a compliant comment.
END PROGRAM foo.
Compliant solution
IDENTIFICATION DIVISION.
PROGRAM-ID. foo.
PROCEDURE DIVISION.
* Compliant
* This is a comment.
END PROGRAM foo.
