This field is related to a standard file. Its descriptor attribute is defined in the standard file and cannot be changed. Examples of the descriptor attributes which can be given are as follows: |
| Actn. |
UQ, DE, SP, SB, and PH. Do not change this standard attribute; enter the option shown in the message. |
| Text | Master field descriptor is ... |
| Expl. |
The type of the Adabas descriptor is invalid. Super-, sub- or phonetic- descriptors cannot be altered in an Userview. These descriptors must be identical to those defined in the original file, except for the descriptor types "UQ" and "DE", which may be erased in an Userview. The VSAM descriptor type in an USER VIEW must be the same as in the physical/logical VSAM file. |
| Actn. |
Enter the descriptor type shown is the message. |
| Text | Descriptor must be same as Adabas. |
| Expl. |

| Expl. |
The first character of an Adabas name must be alpha. The second character can be either numeric or alpha. Note that the Adabas name is two characters long, and remember: Adabas short names "E0" through "E9" are not valid because these short names specify edit masks. |
| Actn. |
Enter a valid Adabas name. |
| Text | Duplicate Adabas field name found. |
| Expl. |
A duplicate Adabas field name was encountered during the CATALOG function. The field names must be unique in the Adabas file. In an Userview, however, the Adabas short names may be specified more than once. |
| Actn. |
Enter an unique Adabas field name. |
| Text | Adabas name cannot be "E0" through "E9". |

| Actn. |
Correct error. |
| Text | REDEFINE group shorter than basic field. |
| Expl. |
A REDEFINE should be at least as long as the basic field, i.e., the sum of the lengths of all fields in the basic field must equal the sum of the lengths of all fields of the REDEFINE. |
