No I think it doesn't happen. Ran a program without GO BACK (or STOP RUN), program was abended with ABEND=S000 U4038 REASON=00000001
with the following message in SYSOUT
| Quote: |
| The flow of control in program TESTPGM proceeded beyond the last line of the program. |
While the same program executes well with GO BACK. |

Once again I'm in..
Tried the below codes:
| Code: |
PROCEDURE DIVISION.
PERFORM 0000-PARA.
DISPLAY"AFTER PERFORM".
0000-PARA.
DISPLAY"INSIDE PARA".
GOBACK. |
SYSOUT:
And the other code is:
| Code: |
PROCEDURE DIVISION.
PERFORM 0000-PARA.
DISPLAY"AFTER PERFORM".
GOBACK.
0000-PARA.
DISPLAY"INSIDE PARA". |
SYSOUT:
| Code: |
INSIDE PARA
AFTER PERFORM |
Check the positions of GO BACK.
Hope this helps. |

Possibly the same homework assignment. . .?
And if the "lesson" was actually about SECTIONs, the point was entirely missed. . .

A good suggestion, it is more direct than the Off Topic hole..... And heck, might be more fun....  |

Hi D.Sch,
The new code (with an additional display statement) that I tried is:
PROCEDURE DIVISION.
0000-MAINLINE.
PERFORM SECTIONA.
DISPLAY 'AFTER PERFORM'.
SECTIONA.
DISPLAY 'INSIDE SECTIONA'.
DISPLAY 'GOING BACK'.
GOBACK.
0000-EXIT.
EXIT.
My new sysout is:
INSIDE SECTIONA
GOING BACK |

Hey guys ... let me clear this up .. although the post was started by "RDR" .... but when I tried solving/running his problem/code .... I got some doubts too .... So I also participated in the discussion .... that's all ....
Plz let me know if there is any kind of format/protocol you guys follow while replying to queries.
Sorry for the confusion that was created bcoz of me.

Looking at Anuj's two separate codes (with different positions of GOBACKs) my doubt is clear.
Thanks everyone. |

Does that mean that you have clear doubts
or
that you are clear of doubts. |

Hi
Eventhough we have given SECTION in the paragrph name, COBOL will not treat it as a SECTION. The SECTION key word should follow the section name.
eg. SECTIONA SECTION.
or TEST SECTION.
