Expl. The Natural buffer pool is full. With Natural Version 2,
the cataloged Natural program must be loaded into the
Natural buffer pool. If there is not enough space available,
the program cannot be executed.
Actn. Contact your Natural administrator.

NAT0778: Program not ready for execution.

Text Program not ready for execution.
Expl. The program to be executed is in the process of being cataloged by
another user. When loading this program into the Natural buffer pool,
Natural can not guarantee that the program code is in a correct and
executable state.
Actn. Execute the program at a later point in time.

NAT0779: Program cannot be executed.

Text Internal Natural DB2 error.
Actn. Provide the Natural source and object program and contact
Software AG support.

NAT0782: No fields were selected by a FIND or READ statement.

Text No fields were selected by a FIND or READ statement.
Expl. A FIND or READ statement does not retrieve any fields (empty view),
but is directed to access an SQL database (e.g. DB2). This will
result in the generation of an SQL SELECT statement with an empty
column list. However, this is not permitted.
Actn. Retrieve at least one field in the FIND or READ statement.

NAT0783: Invalid Natural statement for DB2 access.

Text Invalid Natural statement for DB2 access.
Expl. The following Natural statements are not supported when accessing
a DB2 database:
- GET
- STORE USING NUMBER (ISN)
Actn. Check program and correct error.

NAT0784: Insufficient space for SQL :1: generation.

Text Insufficient space for SQL ... generation.
Expl. During the generation, the corresponding buffer has overflowed.
Either provide a greater thread/partition/region,
or split the program"s SQL parts and put them into different programs.
The message relates either to the buffer containing the SQL
statements or to the buffer containing the SQL XREF data.
Actn. Start Natural in greater thread/partition/region, or reduce the number
or size of SQL statements.

NAT0785: Internal Natural DB2 error.

Text Internal Natural DB2 error.
Actn. Provide the Natural source and object program, and contact
Software AG support.

NAT0786: No fields assigned for an UPDATE statement.

no database fields are specified for the view.
Actn. Assign a value to a DB2 column.

NAT0787: A read-only field may not be modified.

Text A read-only field may not be modified.
Expl. Natural DB2: Read-only fields were specified in an UPDATE statement.
This is not allowed, because these fields may not be modified.
Actn. Check program and correct error.

NAT0788: UPDATE/DELETE must not be used in conj. with FIND SORTED.

Text UPDATE/DELETE must not be used in conj. with FIND SORTED.
Expl. UPDATE/DELETE must not be used in conjunction with READ BY,
FIND ... ORDER BY, SELECT ... ORDER BY or READ RESULT SET
according to DB2 processing logic.
Actn. Correct error in program.

NAT0789: Field in SORTED BY clause is not referenced.

Text Field in SORTED BY clause is not referenced.
Expl. Natural DB2: A field referenced in the SORTED BY clause
is not referenced anywhere in the program.
Actn. Check program and correct error.

NAT0790: No primary key in an IMS access.

Text No primary key in an IMS access.
Expl. Natural DB2 needs a primary key for UPDATE or DELETE
if the loop contains a terminal statement.
Actn. Change program according the Natural DB2 file-server logic.

NAT0791: Data type not supported.

Text Data type not supported.
Expl. The search criterion contains a Natural variable or constant
of a format that is not supported by the DB2 database manager.
Unsupported formats are:
N (numeric unpacked)

D (date)
T (time)
Actn. Do not use the above formats in a program that accesses a DB2 database.

NAT0792: Null or length referenced without the master field.

the corresponding master field to which the length or null
indicator applies must also be referenced.
Actn. Correct program.

NAT0793: Null or length indicator cannot be used as descriptor.

Text Null or length indicator cannot be used as descriptor.

only master fields can be used as search criteria.
Actn. Change search criterion in Natural program.

NAT0794: SELECT FOR UDPATE, but UPDATE not allowed.

Text SELECT FOR UDPATE, but UPDATE not allowed.
Expl. This message also appears with the statement
SELECT SINGLE FOR UPDATE where UPDATE is not allowed.
Actn. Check and correct program.

NAT0797: Invalid use of set name in search criterion.

Text Invalid use of set name in search criterion.
Expl. A set name has been specified in the basic search criterion of a
FIND statement; however
- the file to be accessed is not an Adabas file, or
- the search criterion belongs to a COUPLED criterion.
In either case, a set name must not be used.
See the Natural documentation, FIND statement, for information on
the use of a set name.
Actn. Change the search criterion in your program.

NAT0798: Invalid common table expression.

Text Invalid common table expression.
Expl. The specified common table expression is invalid. A common table
expression has to follow the keyword WITH̲CTE and has the syntax:
cte-name (colname,...) AS (fullselect).

specified too often.
Actn. Correct the common table expression.

NAT0799: Scalar fullselect has to consist of a single column value.

Text Scalar fullselect has to consist of a single column value.
Expl. Scalar fullselect can be used as scalar values in expressions.
Scalar fullselect is a fullselect enclosed in parantheses, which
