Step 1: Read the first record from the PS file into a ws-variable WK-ROW.
Step 2 :INSPECT WK-ROW TALLYING WK-TXT-COUNT FOR ALL 'TEXT'.
Step 3: If the WK-TXT-COUNT is greater than 0, then write the record to the output file.
Step 4: Initialize the WK-TXT-COUNT
Step 5: Continue the above process till end of file.

I have a program with an Array of 5000 occurences which is being passed from 5 sub levels to the front end screen. Thess 5 programs using each 5*2 = 10 different arrays with size as 5000. This is causing the transaction to utilize more storage consupmtion. I am looking to reduce the storage consumption. As part of that initially i thought Dynamic array may solve my problem. After viewing the comments given i see its same as normal array. IS there any other way we can resolve this issue?
