I don't remember such an ADD format, with more than one identifier between "to" and "giving", and it does not appear in the OpenCOBOL Programmer's Guide at Somehow I was convinced the above was possible. Not so, should have checked again. And then, the ADD formats, while possibly assigning multiple identifiers and adding multiple operands, do not do what the above statement would have implied, sorry. This is all not so clear, after all.
