01 INPUT-REC.
02 REC-ROWS OCCURS 10 TIMES INDEXED BY I.
03 REC-COLS OCCURS 10 TIMES INDEXED BY J.
04 REC-DATA PIC X(20 ) - assume
PROCEDURE DIVISION.
READ FILE(INPUT) INTO(WORK-REC) - assume length as 100
SET I TO 1. SET J TO 1.
PERFORM 1000-WRITE 10 TIMES
STOP RUN.
1000-SECTION.
MOVE WORK-REC TO REC-DATA(I J).
SET J UP BY 1.
READ FILE(INPUT) INTO(WORK-REC).
This will move the 10 occurences of J that is (I 1) to (I
10)
Then the outer loop should be incremented 10 times that is
I from 1 to 10.

Answer / neilsh
It should be
01 xyz
05 pqr occurs 2 times indexed by i
07 abc occurs 50 times indexed by j
09 rec pic x(40).
so it would be like 50 occurance of rec and then 2 occurance
of abc
50 + 50 = two divisions

The answer for this is as below:
01 INPUT-REC.
02 REC-DETAIL OCCURS 100 TIMES INDEXED BY I.
03 REC-DATA PIC X(10 ) - assume
PROCEDURE DIVISION.
READ FILE(INPUT) INTO(WORK-REC) - assume length as 100
SET I TO 1.
PERFORM 1000-WRITE 100 TIMES
STOP RUN.
1000-SECTION.
MOVE WORK-REC TO REC-DATA(I).
SET I UP BY 1.
READ FILE(INPUT) INTO(WORK-REC).

i have the following varibles in the working storage 05 ws-A PIC X(30) VALUE 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRESTUVWXYZ ' 05 WS-B REDEFINES WS-A 10 WS-B1 PIC X(10). 10 WS-B2 PIC 9(10). 10 WS-B3 PIC X(10). If I Display B1, B2 and B3 respectively, what is the value displayed in B2

How can we know that cobol program is using report file or simple file....?
I have a source program compiled with Cobol-2. The output file has a record length of 100 defined in the program but a record of 60 bytes getting written into it. i.e. The rest of 40 bytes I am not Writing anything. But it by default puts some values into the last 40 bytes. However it does not impact anything. But when Compiled the module with Enterprise Cobol the last 40 bytes were spaces as fillers. Can anyone explain?
