5.1.6.3 Special Level-Numbers



Special level-numbers identify items that do not structure a record. The special level-numbers are:

66
Identifies items that must contain a RENAMES clause; such items regroup previously defined data items.

(For details, see "RENAMES Clause" in topic 5.3.13.)

77
Identifies data item description entries -- independent Working-Storage or Linkage Section items that are not subdivisions of other items, and are not subdivided themselves. Level-77 items must begin in Area A.

88
Identifies any condition-name entry that is associated with a particular value of a conditional variable. (For details, see "VALUE Clause" in topic 5.3.17.)

Note: Level-77 and level-01 entries in the Working-Storage and Linkage Sections that are referenced in the program must be given unique data-names, because neither can be qualified. Subordinate data-names that are referenced in the program must be either uniquely defined, or made unique through qualification. Unreferenced data-names need not be uniquely defined.
