hi vinayn,

Both Reference modification and redifines are diffrent.

reference modification is to reperesent a part of data ...like substring
redefines is to represent a memory storage shared across more than one variable


thanks

hi vinayn,

reference modification is to reperesent a part of data ,without defining that variable in working storage section.

Redefines means a memory storage is shared across more than one variable.
