The Backtrace Summary

The Backtrace Summary summarizes the program's execution path using statement blocks. The statement block column is located on the left side of the screen and contains two columns of numbers:

• Statement numbers in the left column receive control from a branch, a command level CALL, a PERFORM, or a GOTO
• Statement numbers in the right column issue the branch to the next statement identified

By tracing the execution path, block-by-block, follow the flow of your program's logic.
