    RENAME regroups data items and should be used at level 66, allowing items like emp-no and ta-da to be accessed under the new name re-emp. REDEFINES uses the same memory location for different data items, allowing emp-name from the emp-rec to be redefined and accessed as emp-first-name and emp-last-name. The redefined variable must follow the first variable in the clause.

    Difference between RENAMES and REDEFINES

    RENAME is nothing but regrouping of data items,it should be given 66 level only
    EX.
    01 emp-rec
    05 emp-name pic x(10).
    05 emp-no pic 9(5).
    01 emp-sal
    05 ta-da pic 9(3).
    05 bonus pic 9(3).
    66 re-emp renames emp-no thru ta-da.
    so re-emp regroups emp-no and ta-da.
    REDEFIES:different data items using same memory location.
    EX.
    01 emp-rec.
    05 emp-name pic x(20).
    05 ws-emp-rec redefines
    10 emp-first-name pic x(5).
    10 enp-last-name pic x(5).
    in redefines clause redefines variable should follow the first variable.
