Answer / anil prajapati
Table/array can be defined in cobol by using occurs with
times clause
like
working-=storage section.
01 tab1 value 'anilkumarprajapati'.
03 tab2 pic x(3) occurs 6 times indexed by i.
procedure division.
display tab2(i).
stop run.
output will be dsiplayed like
ani
lku
....

Answer / thaya
To define a table use occur clause ..
01 WT-TABLE-DATA.
03 WT-TAB-PARM OCCURS 99 TIMES
INDEXED BY WT-TAB-IDX.
05 WT-TAB-PARMREC.
10 TBL-PARM-UPDT-CD PIC X(02).
10 FILLER PIC X(01).
10 TBL-STATUS-FLAG PIC X(01).
10 FILLER PIC X(76).
we can use "depending on" keyword with occure clause to
limit our occurences in output.
