Re. Prog
What do you expect it to do ? You have defined input/output
as fixed-length 80 characters.
If you are trying to pass the prog itself as input to the prog,
then you need to do something like -
Add the ORGANIZATION IS LINE SEQUENTIAL to the
SELECT clauses of both input/output.
Define FD's like :
FD    INFILE.
01     INREC   PIC X(256).

FD    OUTFILE.
01     OUTREC.
           03  SEQNUM    PIC 999999.
           03   FILLER       PIC X(250).

Then
01     MYSEQNUM   PIC 9(8) COMP VALUE 1.

In the Prog loop -
MOVE SPACES TO OUTREC.
READ INFILE INTO OUTREC.
MOVE MYSEQNUM TO SEQNUM.
ADD 1 TO MYSEQNUM.
WRITE OUTREC.
