Actually, none will compile because they are all missing
periods, and several have typos.
Assuming they all had periods where required, these are the
other errors...
i would not compile because ORDER RECORD needs a '-' ie.
ORDER-RECORD.
i)01 ORDER RECORD
05 OUT-HEADER PIC X(50)
05 ITEM-COUNT PIC 99
05 OUT-ITEM PIC X(20) OCCURS 1 TO 20 DEPENDING
ON ITEM-COUNT
ii would not compile because LINE-LENGTH has a picture
clause of P9, which is invalid
ii)01 NAME-AND-ADDRESS
05 N-AND-A-LINE OCCURES 5
05 LINE-LENGTH PIC P9
05 N-AND-A-CHAR PIC X OCCURS 1 TO 20 DEPENDING ON
LINE-LENGTH
iii will compile, but SALESMAN-COUNT cannot have a value
greater that 99
iii)01 SALES-LIST
05 SALESMAN-COUNT PIC 99
05 SALES PIC 9(6) OCCURS 1 TO 100
DEPENDING ON
SALESMAN-COUNT
iv will compile and has no errors other than missing
periods that I see.
iv)01 ORDER-RECORD
05 NO-OF-BRANDS PIC 99
05 BRAND-PURCHASED OCCURS 1 TO 15 DEPENDING ON
NO-OF-BRANDS
