Hello,
Your module doubled in size. . . Why?

| I have increased three arrays in the program from 2000 to 4000 which is declared as PIC X. |
Possibly, i misunderstood, but i read that you added only a few k bytes. Did something else change?
Depending on just why this size increased, the approach to the solution may need to change. . . Even if you find a way to run "this" version, there may well come a time when you make it large enough that it cannot run. |

Hi,
Previousely Robert Sample has mentioned that
| Quote: |
No, all IBM computers for quite a few years support 31-bit addressing. The latest generations support 64-bit addressing, even. However, your program is specifically coded to use 24-bit addressing. The COBOL option DATA(31) along with specifying AMODE(31),RMODE(ANY) in your linkage step will convert your program to 31-bit addressing. However, if there are subroutines that require 24-bit addressing, doing this can cause them to generate S0C4 abends since you may pass an address to the subroutine that it cannot access. |
What can be considered as a subroutine. Perfrom section can be considered as a subroutine in a program? The section is defined in the program itself.
Regards,
Nirmal |

| 'Pounding sand' is a phrase that comes to mind. |

| In this context, a subroutine is a separately compiled piece of code that is called by your program. PERFORM sections in a single COBOL program would not qualify as subroutine in this context. CALL 'ABC' USING ... would be a case of a subroutine. Basically, if the binder (linkage editor) requires an INCLUDE statement for the program name, it's a subroutine in this context. |

If you resolve this, your problem should go away. . .
If this cannot be resolved, you may need to look at a different approach. |

maybe, after all, the three arrays that were doubled in size were not PIC X  |
