What Is An In Line Perform? When Would You Use It? Anything Else You Wish To Say About It?

Answer»

The PERFORM and END-PERFORM statements bracket all COBOL II statements between them. The COBOL equivalent is to PERFORM or PERFORM THRU a paragraph. In line PERFORMs work as long as there are no internal GO TOs, not even to an exit. The in line PERFORM for readability should not exceed a PAGE length - often it will REFERENCE other PERFORM paragraphs.
