Hi Everyone,

I'm working as a mainframe programmer. My shop uses FOCUS for generating reports. I'm new to the FOCUS language.

I was going thru the FOCUS book to understand the language and i felt like its a great language which can be used for reporting purpose making the report generation techniques simple.

I've a question regarding the real world usage of this language. How many companies (or apporx % of companies) use this language as the reporting language in the real world.

Is this language popular? i'm asking this question Out of curiosity so that it can be helpful to me on going further
