Answer / varun v
It would be more if we explain with some example.
Lets use the variable used in Ans #1.
01 ws-variable pic x(10) value 'raja ramesh'
Now to get the total count of R's in 'raja ramesh', we can
use Inspect Tallying command.
INSPECT ws-variable TALLYING WS-TALLY1 FOR ALL 'R'.
Where WS-TALLY1 is a working storage variable which gives
the total count of R'S (Here WS-TALLY1 should be 2)

Answer / thomas vt
the right word is "TALLYING" and not "talling"
TALLYING IS THE COUNT OR NO OF OCCURANCES OF A CHARACTER IN
A STRINg.
for eg:
01 name pic x(7) value 'SUCCESS'
01 count pic 9(2).
INSPECT name TALLYING count FOR ALL 'S'.
and the result will be 3 in the variable "count".
