Subscript is the occurance number in the arrary of element.
Fr e.g., an array has only one itme that repeats for 20
times, in order to refer to 10th itme in this array, you
can say ITEM(20). This '20' can be replaced by a WS
variable having value = 20.
Index: It is the displacement from the begining. if you
remember, when we use Index in a loop, then we do not code
Move 2 to WS-INDEX. We have to code. We need to set the
index to zero and then increament.

I have a program with an Array of 5000 occurences which is being passed from 5 sub levels to the front end screen. Thess 5 programs using each 5*2 = 10 different arrays with size as 5000. This is causing the transaction to utilize more storage consupmtion. I am looking to reduce the storage consumption. As part of that initially i thought Dynamic array may solve my problem. After viewing the comments given i see its same as normal array. IS there any other way we can resolve this issue?
