Using figurative constants

Certain commonly used constants and literals are available as reserved words called figurative constants: ZERO, SPACE, HIGH-VALUE, LOW-VALUE, QUOTE, NULL, and ALL literal. Because they represent fixed values, figurative constants do not require a data definition.

For example:

Move Spaces To Report-Header
