Answer / mdvasanth86
In a Cobol-DB2 program, which is essentially a COBOL program
with SQL statements embedded into it, COBOL is the host
language and DB2 is the guest ( 'non-host' for lack of a
better word ).
When it is a pure COBOL program , there really is no point
in calling it a host variables, however, you can still call it.
