IF NOT statement for 88 variable in COBOL

[pinball]

Hi,

Is it possible to use IF NOT statement for 88 variable in COBOL?

Example

Code: Select all

01 COUNTRY PIC X(03) VALUE SPCAES
    88  CTRY_IND   VALUE "IND"
  88  CTRY_PAK   VALUE "PAK"
  88  CTRY_CHN   VALUE "CHN"

Is below statement possible?

Code: Select all

IF NOT CTRY_CHN
     MOVE A TO B
ELSE
     MOVE B TO C
END-IF
