  • What is the exact difference between nested IF and EVALUATE?
  • Is there a report section in cobol-85? Or in any other version?
  • What is the difference between clause and phrase?

Hi careerkishore,

REPORT SECTION

Generally there are two methods by which COBOL programs generate reports.

The first is by definition of the file within the FD section and its assignment to printer or an output file. The report is then generated using the COBOL WRITE statement. An equivalant approach has been undertaken within CORECT.

The second method is by through the REPORT SECTION entry as defined by COBOL 85 standards. Such reports - typically contain positioning information - are translated to an equivalent form using supplied reporting libraries.



Rest of your queries are really good which are to be analyzed well.

Hope this helps.
