Answer / guna
9 times.
Initially, W-Num value will be 1.
1>9, so para will be executed. - 1 time
2>9, so para will be executed. - 2 times
3>9, so para will be executed. - 3 times
4>9, so para will be executed. - 4 times
5>9, so para will be executed. - 5 times
6>9, so para will be executed. - 6 times
7>9, so para will be executed. - 7 times
8>9, so para will be executed. - 8 times
9>9, so para will be executed. - 9 times
10>9, so para will not be executed
so para is executed for 9 times.

what is jcl approach for programming?
Our issue is there seems to be a disconnect, or no link, between our SELECT statement and our SD. We had SELECT SORT-FILE and SELECT SORT-FILE ASSIGN TO SORTWRK. ASSIGN TO SORTWRK1 SORTWRK2 SORTWRK3 SORTWRK4. with SD SORT_FILE RECORD CONTAINS 7833 CHARACTERS. In either case, at run time, the system ignored our SORTWRK# DD statements and allocated 16 sort works with the SORTWK## naming convention. Any ideas why the system does not recognize the connection? We do not even need the SORTWRK DD statements. Thanks
