I'm taking Cobol to finish up my programming degree and can I use VIM as a compiler or another compiler called Tiny Cobol?

Is that a question or a statement? Either way, Vim is just a text editor. You can choose to use it or not; it makes no difference. However, Vim is a nice editor and it does have syntax highlighting for COBOL, if that matters to you. You will need a COBOL compiler like Tiny COBOL whether you use Vim or not.

Yes, I guess what I wrote really didn't make sense, sorry.
But, if I understand you correctly, I can use VIM to create my Cobol stuff and then use Tiny Cobol to compile then.
I will try this and let you all know how this go cause my class starts on Sunday!
thanks
