If an input record from a database file will contain all the information for the entire array, the array can be loaded in a single input operation. If the fields in the database record that correspond to the array occupy consecutive positions in the database record, then the array can be loaded with a single Input specification, as shown in Figure 69. The Input specification defines the positions in the database record for the entire array.

I 1 72 INPARRIf the fields in the database record that correspond to the array are scattered throughout the database record, then the array must be loaded with a several Input specifications. The example in Figure 70 assumes that the database record contains data for all the array elements, but a blank separates the data for each array element in the database record. Each Input specification defines the position in the database record for a single element.
