65 Illegal parameter or routine not variable
The formal-param supplied to the $PARAM function is not in the formal parameter list
for the procedure, or the $PARAM function appears in a procedure that is not
VARIABLE or EXTENSIBLE. Use the $PARAM function only in VARIABLE
procedures and subprocedures and in EXTENSIBLE procedures.
66 Unable to process remaining text
This message is usually the result of a poorly structured program, when numerous
errors are compounded and concatenated to the point where the compiler is unable to
proceed with the analysis of the remaining source lines. Review the code to determine
how to correct the errors.
67 Source commands nested too deeply
The compilation unit nests SOURCE directives to more than seven levels, not counting
the original outermost source file. That is, a SOURCE directive reads in source code
that contains a SOURCE directive that reads in source code that contains a SOURCE
directive that reads in source code, and so on, until the seven-level limit is exceeded.
Reduce the number of nested levels.
68 This identifier cannot be indexed
A directly addressable variable was indexed and used in a memory-referencing
instruction in a CODE statement. Modify the code to avoid this usage.
69 Invalid template access
A template structure is referenced as an allocated data item, such as in the $OCCURS
function. Refer to a template structure only in the declaration of a referral structure or
a structure pointer.
70 Only items subordinate to a structure may be qualified
A qualified reference appears for a nonstructure item. Use the qualified identifier
form of structure-name.substructure-name.item-name only for data items within a
structure.
