This format associates a value, values, and/or range(s) of values with a condition-name. Each such condition-name requires a separate level-88 entry. Level-number 88 and condition-name are not part of the Format 2 VALUE clause itself. They are included in the format only for clarity.
Condition-names are tested procedurally in condition-name conditions (see Conditional Expressions).

If the associated conditional variable is a DBCS data item, all the literals specified for the THROUGH phrase must be DBCS literals (or the figurative constants SPACE, SPACES). The range of DBCS literals specified for the THROUGH phrase is based on the binary collating sequence of the hexadecimal values of the DBCS characters.
If the associated conditional variable is a national data item, all the literals specified for the THROUGH phrase must be national hexadecimal literals (or the figurative constants SPACE, SPACES). The range of national hexadecimal literals specified for the THROUGH phrase is based on the binary collating sequence of the hexadecimal values of the national characters.
