Can a REDEFINES clause be used along with an OCCURS clause?
if yes,
01 WS-TABLE.
03 WS-TABLE-EL OCCURS 5 TIMES PIC X(1) VALUE 'A'.
03 WS-EX REDEFINES WS-TABLE-EL PIC X(5). What can you
expect?
if no,why?
Answer Posted / anoop
It is possible to use redefine class along with OCCURS
class, but you cannot redefine a table directly. So the
above code wont work.
01 ws-table
03 ws-table-el redefines ws-ex occurs 5 times pic x(1).
This is valid one.
