Is it possible to use OCCUR in the PERFORM Statement ?

If so how is it different from the Until clause?

Use OCCURS if you know the no of times to repeat the loop.

Else use UNTIL to specify the condition.

Hi markanthos,

There is no OCCUR clause in a PERFORM stmt.

You can use:

PERFORM PARA-X 15 TIMES
