Shiva, > Array-Table is external Pic X(1000) > I believe the 'is extrenal' phrase needs to be on the 01 group level, and the array defined below that. 01 Arrays-and-Tables is external. 05 Table-Name Pic x(1000). > In PGMA, I will change some values of this array and call PGMB.

IF you are using ILE COBOL (RPG does not have external sharing of files and data structures) and IF they are both called from the same job, and IF they are in the same activation group, then anything that ProgramB changes, ProgramA will see.
