In Studio Enterprise Edition, if you have duplicate paragraph-names, in different sections, and then call a paragraph-name from outside its section, an error is produced unless you have explicitly referenced the paragraph-name and its section. In RM/COBOL, by just calling the paragraph-name, it assumes you are calling the next declaration of the paragraph-name found.
To ensure that references to duplicate paragraph-names are correctly resolved, you must qualify a reference to a duplicate paragraph-name by adding the section-name in which it is declared.
If your source code contains the following:
.... perform para-2. .... sect-1 section. para-1. .... para-2. .... sect-2 section. para-2. ....
RM/COBOL will resolve the reference to para-2 in the PERFORM statement by using the declaration of para-2 in the sect-1 SECTION. In Studio Enterprise Edition, however, you must qualify the reference to the duplicate paragraph-name in your source code by using the PERFORM para-2 OF sect-1 statement.
