Answer / sivakumar sekharannair
Yes go to can be used in inline perform. when GO TO is used
in inline perform then irrespective of the number of times
the perform has to execute.. the control will go to GO TO.
example:
PERFORM VARYING A1 FROM 1 BY 1 UNTIL A1 > 4
DISPLAY 'SIVAKUMAR'
GO TO DISPLAY-PARA
END-PERFORM.
DISPLAY-PARA
DISPLAY 'KUMAR'.
SYSOUT:
SIVAKUMAR
KUMAR
Instead of
SIVAKUMAR
SIVAKUMAR
SIVAKUMAR
SIVAKUMAR
Actually the perform has to execute 4 times and so the
display should be executed 4 times. but because GO TO is
given inside the inline perform the control goes to display-
para and and dose not come back.

Answer / shan
The example used by Sivakumar is perfect,
Perform is used for looping, so it should have a exit
condition. simply perform and end perform wont make wright
syntax.
another kind of perform is
PERFORM <paragraph name> until < conditions>

Answer / rajesh
In-line PERFORMs work as long as there are no internal GO
TOs, not even to an exit.

Go TO para2
display' inline perform'
end perform.
Para2
you can put a GO TO but the control would pass to the go to
label , and it would not display inline perform.
