What is the difference beetween Arrays and Tables in Cobol?
please dont give the answer that arrays in cobol

Answer Posted / jeet
Arrays are basically used to store data which are of
similar type in contiguos memory locations.
Tables on the other hand you can think it as a list which
is used for lookup/referencing, for example when doing a
SEARCH/SEARCH ALL.

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
