In addition to the above,
subscript is like a working storage variable
abc pic 999.
Using index the search for the data is faster since it gives
the object location(displacement) directly.
Subscript can be modified by ADD,SUBTRACT etc
Index modification is UP BY,DOWN BY
and yeah this q should have been in cobol section ;)

Subscript refers to the array occurrence while index is the
displacement (in no of
bytes) from the beginning of the array. An index can only
be modified using PERFORM, SEARCH & SET.
Need to have index for a table in order to use SEARCH,
SEARCH ALL.
