Answer / leroy
Answer #2 is incorrect for IBM COCOL compiler.
Answer #1 is correct but incomplete. a) "VALUE" close can
not be used in occurring fields b) Occuring fields are the
ones that will redefine other fields not the other way
round.
Example: CORRECT
01 LIT-FIELD PIC X(21) VALUE 'SUNMONTUEWEDTHUFRISAT'.
01 DAYS REDEFINES LIT-FIELDS.
05 WEEK-DAY OCCURS 7 PIC X(03).
INCORRECT:-
01 DAYS.
05 WEEK-DAY OCCURS 7 PIC X(03).
05 LIT-FIELDS REDEFINES WEEK-DAY VALUE 'SUNMONTUE.........'

Answer / john
All fine but, Nikhitha's Question has to be confirmed
first;
1. Whether a redefines can be used within an occurs (OR)
2. Whether an occurs can be redefined?
Looks like Nikhita's Question is 1, but all of your answers
were for Question 2.
