Go into edit on any dataset
Put the cursor on Edit on the action bar and hit enter - hilite will be there as one of the options
select that option by number, 3 in my case
check that check that coloring, the second column of options, is set to at least 2 - Color program

Hello,

I'm not on a pc that is acceptable to a mainframe, so i've not tested this:

While editing the member, enter HILITE COBOL in the command area and press Enter.
