AMODE is the attribute that tells which hardware addressing mode is supported by your program: 24bit addressing, 31-bit addressing or either 24-bit or 31-bit addressing. This attribute is AMODE 24, AMODE 31 or AMODE ANY.

AMODE is addressing mode.AMODE can be 24,31 or any.  AMODE 24 implies that the addresses below the 16Meg line can be fetched but the addresses below the 16 Meg line cannot be fetched.   AMODE 31 implies that the addresses above and below the 16Meg line can be fetched. All new codes in COBOL 3 have amode as 31 by default.Hope this helps!!
