How to delete leading spaces/blank in COBOL ?
Example:- 01 data-name-1 pic x(220) " English is a
language".
I would like to delete leading spaces.

Answer Posted / minarul

you can do this by defining another varible with JUSTIFIED
RIGHT clause. then move the value from data-name-1 to that
varible. You have to define the picture clause of that
varible with proper length : below code will exactly do
that:

01 data-name-1 pic x(220) " English is a language".
01 CHR6 PIC X(217) JUSTIFIED RIGHT.
now do a move from data-name-1 to CHR6 and then disolay
the content of CHR6

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?
