why occurs clause not mentioned in 01 level..

Answer / jagveer singh

As you all might already know that an array is known
as 'Repeating Groups' because of there nature, it means
that it is a group of data-items, 01 level is used to
define group level variable only (not the groups directly),
so data-items of group needs to be defined under 01 level
(group level) variable only, we can not declare them on 01
level directly.

why occurs clause not mentioned in 01 level..

Answer / m

we have 2 types of redefines

2. Implicit redefines -- system redefines its spaces
accordingly .. eg: the variable/record defined with 01
level are usually redefined by the system.

this is th ereason why we wont define occurs clause @ 01
level

why occurs clause not mentioned in 01 level..

Answer / som

BECAUSE IF WE DEFINE THE OCCURS CLAUSE AT 01 LEVEL THEN IT
BREAK THE BASIC RULE OF LANGUAGE DECLARTION OF SAME NAME
VARIABLE MORE THEN ONE TIME.E.G
01 NAME PIC XX OCCURS 2 TIMES. MEANS ACTUAL DECLARTION WILL
LIKE THIS
01 NAME PIC XX.
01 NAME PIC XX.
THATS WHY IT IS NOT USED AT 01 LEVEL
