can be used in any division in cobol pgm ,you can code move
statement in copy book and copy in procedure division.

Answer / tata

we can use move in copy book. but
if ur copybook contains procedure division statements
with move statement.. then that variables which were wriiten
with move statement, should be declared in ws-section of
data division.
in this particular case only this is possible.. in all
other cases this is not popssible.

Copy book means... A piece of code may be used in many programs.
We can write that piece of code in a member of a PDS (copy book) and we can use anywhere in the COBOL programs.

What is wrong with the following data declaration? 01 W-DATE PIC X(6). 05 DD PIC 99. 05 MM PIC 99. 05 YY PIC 99. (a) Nothing is wrong. (b) Under W-DATE all level 05 items are having a PIC 99 but level 01 has PIC X(6). (c) PIC can't be specified for a group item. (d) DD, MM, and YY are invalid datanames.
