i declare a Table as OCCURS 2000 TIMES.If the input file
has more than 2000 records will the COBOL program fail?

Answer Posted / cobol will never die

I don't know how one can answer given the lack of
specificity of the question but.... Are we assuming all
records are loaded into the table and no check is made if
the index or subscript is > 2000? In other words are we
loading more than 2000 records data into the program? Can
we also assume this record has numeric definitions?

Given this scenario, and also given the executable code has
no knowledge of a symbolic copybook layout a S0C7 will not
occur as long as the data in the records being loaded is
wholesome. A S0C7 will occur, however, if any of any
numeric data item is corrupted by the overflow, then
referenced by any one of a dozen instructions.
