working-storage section.
77 index1 pic 9 value 1.
01 week value 'montuewedthufrisatsun'.
03 days pic x(3) occurs 7 times indexed by idx.
procedure division.
perform varying index1 from 1 by 1 until index1 >= 8
display days(Index1)
compute index1 = index1 + 1
end-perform.
stop run.

02 MONTH PIC A(10).
02 NUM-OF-UNITS PIC 9(7).
02 PRICE-OF-UNIT PIC 9(5).
and we can call table elemnts as follows
procedure division.
