I am having problems with multiple conditional IFs (I have a few that have 10+ ORs on them).
Answer:
PERCobol supports a very large number of full clauses in IF's, but abbreviated conditions are limited in number. (That is, a=b or a=c is fine, but a=b or c or d... is limited in number; the limit is 8. The condition can always be expressed as a full condition.)
