Answer Posted / ravi patnam
Maximum value for the N is 99999999. For example see below:
$set ans85 comp
IDENTIFICATION DIVISION.
PROGRAM-ID. "test".
AUTHOR. RAVI PATNAM.
DATE-WRITTEN. 20-02-2009.
ENVIRONMENT DIVISION.
INPUT-OUTPUT SECTION.
FILE-CONTROL.
WORKING-STORAGE SECTION.
01 N pic 9(9) value 0.
01 test-occurs occurs 0 to 99999999
depending on N.
02 test-no pic 9(2).
PROCEDURE DIVISION.
MAIN.
move 99999999 to N.
move 11 to test-no(N).
display test-no(N).
stop run.
