Answer / rahul
For better readablity, we use scope terminators in the
program.
scope terminator closes are not the executable statements.
Nothing will happen to the program by not using these
terminators.

For Inline Perform and End-evaluate scope terminator is
mandatory. So it will result in compilation err. For others
the program logic will got impacted.

Answer / prachi
exapamples of scope terminators are end-if for if statement
end-evaluate for evaluate function. So if we dont give end-
if when we are using if statement ...it willl throw
compilation error..So scope terminator is needed to end the
loop..if we dont give scope terminator it will throw
compilation error...

I have PS flat file with 14 records. I want to read from 4th to 9th record and want to write those 6 records (4th record to 9th record) to another PS file (output file). there is no key defined in the input file. I just want read a certain Consecutive records. can any one please give me the procedure division Coding for this. I have coded the below coding but the READ-PARA is performing only 1 time even though I have 14 records in my input file (i.e FILE-1): PROCEDURE DIVISION. A000-SECTION. MOVE 0 TO I. OPEN INPUT FILE-1. IF CHECK-KEY1 > 0 DISPLAY "OPEN ERROR FOR FILE-1, CODE IS:" CHECK-KEY1 END-IF. OPEN EXTEND NEWFILE-1 IF CHECK-KEY3 > 0 DISPLAY "OPEN ERROR FOR NEWFILE-1 COD IS" CHECK-KEY3 END-IF. PERFORM READ-PARA THRU EXIT-PARA UNTIL EOF-REC = 'YES'. DISPLAY " FINALLY OUT OF LOOP" CLOSE FILE-1 CLOSE NEWFILE-1 STOP RUN. READ-PARA. ADD 1 TO I READ FILE-1 AT END MOVE 'YES' TO EOF-REC IF I > 3 AND < 10 PERFORM WRITE-PARA ELSE DISPLAY "NOT IN RANGE" END-IF. EXIT-PARA. EXIT. WRITE-PARA. WRITE NEW-REC FROM FILE1-REC.
