Yes, we can use "Inspect Tallying" for the same.
Wroking storage Variable:
01 WS-VAR PIC X(15) VALUE ' COBOL'.
01 WS-VAR-FINAL PIC X(15).
01 WS-TALLY1 PIC 9(02) VALUE ZERO.
Procedure Dvision:
Inspect WS-VAR Tallying WS-TALLY1 for leading spaces
Move WS-VAR(WS-TALLY1+1 : 15-WS-TALLY1) to
WS-VAR-FINAL.
Now WS-INSPECT-FINAL should have
Value 'COBOL'.
