RECONNECT MODEM Because the converted application is 
running within the context of a 
browser and not over a dial-up ine, 
this statement is not meaningful in a 
web environment. The converter 
generates a warning and continues 
converting the rest of the program. 
The converted Java code contains 
the warning statement as a 
comment. The converted code will 
compile, but the effect of the 
RECONNECT MODEM statement 
is not provided by the converted 
code.
No corrective action 
needed.
RESTART-
TRANSACTION
The converter generates an error and 
continues converting the rest of the 
program.  The converted Java code 
contains a non-compilable 
statement.
Either remove the non-
compilable statement 
from the converted 
code or remove the 
RESTART-
TRANSACTION 
statement from the 
SCREEN COBOL 
source program.
SCROLL This statement applies only to 6510 
terminals, which are not supported 
for conversion. The converter 
generates a warning and continues 
converting the rest of the program. 
The converted Java code contains 
the warning statement as a 
comment. The converted code will 
compile, but the effect of the USE 
statement is not provided by the 
converted code.
No corrective action 
needed.
SEND MESSAGE The Intelligent Device Support 
(IDS) feature is not currently 
supported for conversion. The 
converter generates an error and 
continues converting the rest of the 
program.  The converted Java code 
contains a non-compilable 
statement. 
Either remove the non-
compilable statement 
from the converted 
code or remove the 
SEND MESSAGE 
statement from the 
SCREEN COBOL 
source program.
