From Oracle documentation :
Quote:
What is Pro*COBOL?
To access an Oracle database, you use a high-level query language called Structured Query Language (SQL). You often use SQL through an interactive interface, such as SQL*Plus.
Pro*COBOL is a programming tool that enables you to embed SQL statements in a COBOL program. The Pro*COBOL precompiler converts the SQL statements in the COBOL program into standard Oracle run-time library calls. The generated output file can then be compiled, linked, and run in the usual manner.
Use the Pro*COBOL precompiler when rapid development and compatibility with other systems are your priorities.

Has anyone suggested this or you just read it somewhere. I see you mentioned in your post that you read it, so what's the source, what else was explained/demonstrated there. Apart from seeking a solution here, where else did you search and what clue did you find?
If you read my above post quoted from documentation, it says the SQL can be embeded in a COBOL program and further steps will get you the result.

If a Pro*Cobol compiler exists for z/OS then the answer is yes.
