The number of times a table repeats is specified by the COBOL OCCURS clause. COBOL also permits tables that occur a variable number of times, DEPENDING ON the value in some other field. |
| > |
Compaq COBOL Reference Manual
The COBOL OCCURS clause defines tables and provides the basis for subscripting and indexing. It eliminates the need for separate entries for repeated data items. |

Digital Equipment Corp.
The COBOL OCCURS clause defines tables and provides the basis for subscripting and indexing. It eliminates the need for separate entries for repeated data items. |
| > |
HP COBOL II/XL Reference Manual
The COBOL OCCURS clause is used to define a table containing[REV BEG] up to seven dimensions.[REV END] Its use eliminates the need for separate entries to describe repeated data items, and provides information required for the application of subscripts or indices. |
| > |
Micro Focus Reference Manual
The COBOL OCCURS clause is used in defining tables and other homogenous sets of repeated data items. The COBOL OCCURS clause eliminates the need for separate entries for repeated data items and supplies information required for the application of subscripts or indices. |

The COBOL READ verb is demonstrated in COBOL program examples on how to process sequential files. |
| > |
HP COBOL II/XL Reference Manual
The COBOL READ statement makes a record of a file available to your program. It has three formats depending on the type of organization of the file from which a record is made available. |
| > |
IBM COBOL/400, iSeries Language Help Manual
The COBOL READ statement makes a record available to the program. For sequential access, the COBOL READ statement makes the next logical record from a file available to the object program. For random access, the COBOL READ statement makes a specified record from a direct-access file available to the object program. When the COBOL READ statement is executed, the associated file must be open in INPUT or I-O mode. |
| > |
University of Northern Iowa
The COBOL READ statement is described in reading a relative file sequentially, randomly, and dynamically. |

The COBOL SORT statement is described in COBOL program examples. |
| > |
Course Notes, Northern Illinois University, Faculty
The COBOL SORT verb takes one or more files of input records and sorts them in ascending or descending order by one or more programmer specified keys. |
| > |
Course Notes, Texarkana College, Faculty
The COBOL SORT statement is used in the PROCEDURE DIVISION to place records from an input file in a temporary work file where their order will be rearranged. |
| > |
HP COBOL II/XL Reference Manual
The COBOL SORT statement creates a sort file either by executing an input procedure, or by transferring records from another file. |
| > |

COBOL STRING Example, Saint Xavier University, Faculty
The COBOL STRING verb is presented in a COBOL example program. |
| > |
HP COBOL II/XL Reference Manual
The COBOL STRING statement is described in the HP COBOL II/XL Reference Manual, and examples are provided in COBOL programs. The COBOL STRING statement concatenates the partial or complete contents of two or more data items into a single data item. |
| > |
IBM COBOL/400, iSeries Language Help Manual
The COBOL STRING statement is described in the COBOL/400, iSeries Language Help Manual. The COBOL STRING statement strings together the partial or complete contents of two or more data items or literals into one single data item. One COBOL STRING statement can replace a series of MOVE statements. When the COBOL STRING statement is executed, data is transferred from the sending field to the receiving field. Any subscripting and reference modification is performed only once, at the beginning of the execution of the COBOL STRING statement. |

The COBOL WRITE verb is demonstrated in COBOL program examples on how to process sequential files. |
| > |
HP COBOL II/XL Reference Manual
The COBOL WRITE statement is described in the HP COBOL II/XL Reference Manual. The COBOL WRITE statement releases a logical record. To use the COBOL WRITE statement for a sequential file, the file must be opened in the OUTPUT or EXTEND mode. To use the COBOL WRITE statement with an indexed, relative, or random file, the file must be opened in either OUTPUT, I-O mode, or EXTEND for access mode sequential. For sequential files, the COBOL WRITE statement may additionally be used for vertical positioning of lines within a logical page. |
| > |
IBM COBOL/400, iSeries Language Help Manual
The COBOL WRITE statement releases a logical record for an output or input/output file. When the COBOL WRITE statement is executed, the associated sequential file must be open in OUTPUT or EXTEND mode; the associated indexed or relative file must be open in OUTPUT, I-O, or EXTEND mode. |
