SSRANGE is a compiler option used to handle an array overflow
Default Compiler Option is NOSSRANGE and hence when required
to handle the overflow condition, SSRANGE Compiler Option
needs to be specified in the COBOL Program (The first Line
of the program)

Answer / harish

suppose in your program your are using array occurs 10 time

in this case if you use NOSSRANGE (WHEN YOUR PROGRAM TRY TO
ACCESS 11TH TIME PROGRAM WILL NOT ABEND INURN IT ENDS THE
LOOP,ERROR FREE)

SUPPOSE IN CASE OF SSRANGE

YOUR PROGRAM STOP WITH ERROR ,PROGRAM ABENDS,(I THINK SOC4)
