In COBOL CALL-CALLING,if a program A is calling 3 sub-
programs, dynamically, then it is said sub-programs will
always will always in Initial Mode. My question is : Do we
need to code CANCEL or (IS INITIAL) for dynamically called
sub-programs or it is the property of Dynamically called
pgms so every time sub-pgms are called they will be in initial
mode. ***This question is only Dynamic call****,
Please reply. Thank you in advance.

NO NEED TO USE CANCLE EVERY TIE.WHEN SUBPROGRAM IS CALLED IT IS ALWAYS IN ITS INITIAL STATE.THIS IS COBOL 85 FEATURE.
