INITIALIZE TABELLE ?
We have more control, for instance if your table has redefines,
delimiters (within fillers), or if the initialized data are variable
from run to run (or from copybook program to copybook program). It
can also be used if your table is in the linkage division.
It's also quicker, although that isn't as important these days.
We have initialized database records as well - calc into a record with
a key of space to pull out the standard *empty* database record,
before creating a new one to add. This can be changed on the fly.
