Answer / b.rajesh
Number of occurrences of an element is known as subscript.
For storing of data we use the concept of SUBSCRIPT.
EX:-
WORKING-STORAGE SECTION.
01 section
02 marks pic 9(2) occurs 3 times.
77 I pic p(1).
PROCEDURE DIVISION.
move 1 to I.
perform until I > 3
accept marks(I)
add 1 to I
end-perform.
Here we declare the marks(I) : I is called as subscript.

How can we increase the size of an existing PDS to include more no. of modules. I tried the answer posted by Jagan(TSO PDS 'pds name') but did not find it working. The answer posted by kamal i know very well. Please suggest me a answer so that we don't need to delete the existing PDS and still we can change the size as well.
