Answer / divyakiruthiga
Step 1: Read the first record from the PS file into a ws-variable WK-ROW.
Step 2 :INSPECT WK-ROW TALLYING WK-TXT-COUNT FOR ALL 'TEXT'.
Step 3: If the WK-TXT-COUNT is greater than 0, then write the record to the output file.
Step 4: Initialize the WK-TXT-COUNT
Step 5: Continue the above process till end of file.

What is the compute verb? How is it used?
How to replace the GOTO statement in COBOL without changing the structure of program. e.g. consider following code... I.D. E.D. D.D. P.D. compute C = A + B. GOTO para 100-display. compute D = C - D. GOTO 200-display. some other logic...... ........ GOTO 300-para. ...... ...... GOTO 400-para. Now I want to replacce all GOTO statements without changing the structure and otput of program.
