Define the working storage variable in the following way:
01 ws-var1.
05 ws-var2 pic x(1).
05 ws-var3 pic x(3).
Read the database file.
Move the database field value to the working storage
variable (i.e. ws-var1)
Then preform the following
if ws-var2 = '3'
move '5' to ws-var2
move ws-var1 to the database field
rewrite database record
end -if
read the next record.
Preform the above routine till eof..
