Explanation

In COBOL, the VALUE clause cannot generally be used in the Linkage Section because data in the Linkage Section is external and its values are assigned by the calling program. The only exception is level 88, which defines condition names that can have VALUE clauses since they're descriptive names for conditions, not actual data storage.
