you write like this :
01 Copybook1.
02 ADDRESS pic x(03).
01 Copybook2.
02 ADDRESS pic x(03).
move 'AAA' to ADDRESS OF copybook1
move 'BBB' to Address OF copybook2
never forget the 'OF'

Or we can use replace option with the copybook in the COBOl
PGM.
For e.g..
Copy Copybook1.
Copy Copybook2 replacing ADDRESS with ADDRESS1.
Correct me if I am wrong.

Answer / jagan
There won't be any error if we have similar variables in
different copybooks and use them in a same program. One
thing i would like to ensure here is before using a copybook
variable in a program , you will need to mention the name of
the copybook followed by the variable...
eg., there are 2 copybooks. RESIDENT and OFFICE and both
of them have the variable ADDRESS in it .
(i) RESIDENT
(ii) OFFICE
We need to refer them in the program by
RESIDENT-ADDRESS and OFFICE-ADDRESS.
In case any data is to be moved to these fields then you can
do it by below stmts.
MOVE PERM-ADD TO RESIDENT-ADDRESS
MOVE TEMP-ADD TO OFFICE-ADDRESS
Hence there shouldn't be any problem in referring to similar
fields in different copybooks .
