C-30

166

Type. Error

Cause. The required RENAMES clause is missing from a data description entry with

level number 66.

167

Type. Error

Cause. The data description entry of a group item has a BLANK WHEN ZERO,

JUSTIFIED, SYNCHRONIZED, or PICTURE clause. These clauses can only describe

an elementary data item. BLANK WHEN ZERO syntax is enforced when used, but

data items using this syntax cannot be accessed by SCREEN COBOL programs.

168

Type. Warning

Cause. The SCREEN COBOL language required a group data item described with a

SIGN clause to have at least one signed numeric subordinate data item. SCREEN

COBOL reports nonconformance for informational purposes only.

169

Type. Error

Cause. An elementary data item must be described with a PICTURE clause.

174

Type. Error

Cause. The indicated data item cannot be aligned to the first character position of the

area it redefines. SCREEN COBOL does not permit a redefinition that requires

allocation of implicit FILLER character positions to align the first elementary item.
