Equivalent of USAGE POINTER Or should be. If there is more to the structure than that, still no problem, just build an 01 record with a couple of sub-fields. (When mapping C struct to COBOL record, adding SYNCHRONIZED (or short as SYNCH) the compile will take care that COBOL has the same implicit padding between fields as what C would use).
