what is the difference between occurs and occurs depending
on? i dont think so there is the difference in
storage..then why we should use occurs depending on?

Answer Posted / venkat

when we define cobol table with OCCURS, it is of fixed
storage and length. The program execution will take the
total storage irrespective of utiliztaion. Where as table
degined with OCCURS DEPENDING ON provides flexibility to
the developers to choose length of table dynamically.
Length of below table is based on WS-OBJ value.

WS-SUB OCCURS 1 TO 5 TIMES DEPENDING ON WS-OBJ PIC X(2).

For example if you want to stoge employee detail in an
cobol table and you are not aware of number of employees at
the time of table declaration, you can use variable length
cobol table. During program execution based on number of
employees you can set the length of table
