As you said giving IDENTIFICATION DIVISION & PROGRAM-ID is
mandatory in a normal cobol program. This is important for
a program to get compiled. But if you try executing the
program with these two statements alone, you will get SOC4
abend as your program tries to access a storage location to
which it was not authorized.
For a program to run successfully, all the 4 divisions and
the program-id paragraph are mandatory.

Our issue is there seems to be a disconnect, or no link, between our SELECT statement and our SD. We had SELECT SORT-FILE and SELECT SORT-FILE ASSIGN TO SORTWRK. ASSIGN TO SORTWRK1 SORTWRK2 SORTWRK3 SORTWRK4. with SD SORT_FILE RECORD CONTAINS 7833 CHARACTERS. In either case, at run time, the system ignored our SORTWRK# DD statements and allocated 16 sort works with the SORTWK## naming convention. Any ideas why the system does not recognize the connection? We do not even need the SORTWRK DD statements. Thanks
