A structure pointer of an incorrect data type occurs. Specify only INT or STRING data
type when you declare structure pointers.
72 Indirection must be supplied
An indirection symbol is missing from a pointer declaration. When you declare a
pointer, specify an indirection symbol preceding the pointer identifier.

An incorrect referral occurs in a declaration. For the referral, specify the identifier of a
previously declared structure or structure pointer.
