Trace Generated Only if Command is First Word

Trace statements are generated for commands only if one of the commands is the first word on a given source statement line. For example, in the statement

 IF DB-STATUS-OK
     OBTAIN CALC CUSTOMER-RECORD.

trace statements are generated for the OBTAIN command because it is the first word on the line.

But in the statement

 IF DB-STATUS-OK
     THEN OBTAIN CALC CUSTOMER-RECORD.

no trace statements are generated because the word THEN precedes the OBTAIN command.
