Re: move CORR fields to grab

From your statement, an elementary item may be 2,3, or 9 levels down.

In Cobol/400, CORR only seems to look ONE level down. It fails to keep searching for "elementary items", which I would take to be the level with a PIC definition.

Maybe that is the COBOL standard, not sure. It would be great I would think if there was an option to keep looking downwards in groups for each elementary item.

Joel,

The CORR (or corresponding) phrase is only intended to work with
elementary items of the groups specified. So no, there is no way to see
fields beyond the first level down.

Is it possible to have the "move CORR " see fields more than just
one level down?

For example, two levels down?


Thanks
