Hello selvam,

Following is the excerpt from the COBOL Manual...

Quote:
To do serial searches, use SEARCH and indexing. For variable-length tables, you can use PERFORM with subscripting or indexing.

To do binary searches, use SEARCH ALL and indexing ONLY.



Hope this helps

Regards

Mayuresh Tendulkar
