Statements
The token value specified by token-id can be structured or unstructured. That is, you
can overlay a simple value with a structured value and then reference subcomponents
of the structured value.
In token-id, you can qualify the token name with a subsystem ID and include an
index. For syntax descriptions, see Tokens (Unqualified) on page 3-4 and Qualified
Tokens on page 3-4.
In field-part, you can omit certain levels, as you do in COBOL, as long as
struct-name and the components that follow it form an unambiguous field reference.
Example
Suppose ABC-TKN-TWOWORDS is a token with a two-word value, and BYTE-
STRUCT is a structure that contains a byte array B with four bytes. The first line in the
example contains a reference to the first byte, and the second line contains a reference
to the last three bytes (a slice of an array).

2: ABC-TKN-TWOWORDS.BYTESTRUCT.B(1:3)
