In Cobol 11 there are a limit of 16,711,568 Bytes and 7 positions of numbers.
For example:
Example 1
05 WTAB-LOTE OCCURS N TIMES
INDEXED BY WIND-LOTE.
10 WTAB-LOTE-REG PIC X(250).

In this case N will be: N=16,711,568/250 , N=66846, and the compiler will accept '99999'

Example 2
05 WTAB-LOTE OCCURS N TIMES
INDEXED BY WIND-LOTE.
10 WTAB-LOTE-REG PIC X(003).

In this case N will be: N=16,711,568/3 , N=55770522, and the compiler will accept '9999999', but this value is less than N and for this second case the limit is related to the number of the positions (7).

But for sure there are the rest of the space in the working section. In the examples was assumed there aren't any other variable in the working.
