One of my interview question recently..
Q) When 49 level is used in cobol? Is there any specific reason for using this level?
A) I have seen 49 level usually used to specify the host variables for VARCHAR type column in the DCLGEN but dont know of any specific reason.
Could there be any specific reason for this? If yes, pls explain..

Hi technut,
Below 49 level we cant give any other elementary items, i think that because its using for declaring VARCHAR items.
Anyone correct me if i am wrong. |

Thanks Bipin..
Hmm but even if we give anyother level than 49 for VARCHAR, then also it will work fine right...? So that doesnt make sense right! |
