Hello,

Another things pls look at my codes is there any chances that my program might abend...i am very worried about that since i don't have much time
A large part of programming is dealing with abends in newly written code. I would expect there will be some abends during testing.

Additonal info is in this attachment.

Hello,

Attached is another code review.

One thing that i would strongly encourage is becoming more familiar and comfortable with the COBOL documentation (link provided previously). The documentation is always available while one of us might not be.

I'll try to check back in later tonight (my time) which will be early Monday your time.

Does your next assignment build on this one or is the next assignment something different?

Hello,

i have tried increasing the number of storage spaces but it never worked
I don't understand what this is telling me. . .

From your attachment:

000469 2 MOVE K(YY) TO KX(BX)
==000469==> IGYPS2013-E Not enough subscripts or indices were specified for "K".
000469==> IGYPS2013-E Not enough subscripts or indices were specified for "KX"

These (and the other ones further down in the code) are 2-dimensional arrays and require 2 levels (l1, l2) when being
indexed/subscripted). Refer to other places these variables were used - you have 2 levels specified there.
