ACTION Remove the keyword clause from the command and execute it.
1253 MESSAGE = and <> are the only operators allowed (SDERR 1253)
CAUSE Only = and <> operators are allowed when dealing with scope rights (other relational
operators are not meaningful as the rights are not hierarchical).
ACTION Change the Selection Criteria so that only = and <> operations are used.
1254 MESSAGE There is a duplicate scope right entry (SDERR 1254)
CAUSE The indicated scope right is specified more than one time.
ACTION Remove the duplicate specification of the scope right.

1256 MESSAGE Expected an 'attribute = value' pair (SDERR 1256)
CAUSE Expected an attribute to be assigned a value (value can be blank) here.
ACTION Check the syntax of the ATTRIBUTE-LIST clause. Probably need to remove an extra
comma before the closing parenthesis of the clause.
1257 MESSAGE Expected an attribute edit value (SDERR 1257)
CAUSE Expected an edit value for the attribute.
ACTION If there is an extra comma with no value, remove it. Otherwise, make sure that the
attribute edit values specified are legal for the attribute type (remember, quotes are
required if a character string will not be accepted as a legal System Dictionary name).
1258 MESSAGE Ranges are legal only for numeric edit values (SDERR 1258)
CAUSE Ranges of values in the EDIT-VALUE list are allowed only for numeric data types
(integer and floating).
ACTION If the attribute is of a numeric type, specify only numeric values and the range can
remain. Otherwise, a range is not allowed for this type so the possibilities must be
listed explicitly.
