POINTER Phrase purpose: Points to the position in the
destination string where the next character will go.

Stntax:
STRING
Ident1 DELIMITED BY SIZE
Ident2 DELIMITED BY SPACES
INTO Ident4 WITH POINTER Point1
END-STRING.
POINTER value must be an integer item and its description
must allow it to contain a value one greater than the size
of the destination string. For instance, a pointer declared
as PIC 9 is too small if the destination string is 10
characters long
