Statement not supported with .... |
Explanation |
The statement cannot be used with the database type you are using. For details as to which statements support which database types, see the Natural documentation. |
Action |
Check program and correct error. |
Text |
Value range with keyword 'TO' not supported for .... |
Explanation |
The statement option 'TO' cannot be used with the database type you are using. When 'TO' is used to specify a value range in a READ or HISTOGRAM statement, the end-value check will not be done by Natural, but is performed by the database. However, this requires a corresponding capability of the accessed database. Therefore, option 'TO' can only be used if the underlying database is Adabas Version 7 (or above), VSAM, DL/I or DB2. For details as to which statements support which database types, see the Natural documentation. |
Action |
Check program and correct error. |
Text |
Invalid usage of MULTI-FETCH option for .... |
Explanation |
The MULTI-FETCH option can only be used if the underlying database is Adabas. The MULTI-FETCH option is not permitted, if a - READ or HISTOGRAM statement contains a 'DYNAMIC .. SEQUENCE' clause; - READ or FIND statement contains an 'IN SHARED HOLD' clause. For further details, see the Natural documentation. |
Action |
Check program and correct error. |
Text |
Incompatible range combinations in relational expression. |
Explanation |
When two arrays are compared in a relational expression, the number of occurrences in each dimension of the one array must match the number of occurrences in the corresponding dimension of the other array.

A variable number of occurrences in one dimension must not be compared with a fixed number of occurrences in the corresponding dimension of the other array. |
Action |
Correct error in program. |
Text |

Action |
Correct error in program. |
Text |
Access criterion not supported for this type of database. |

Referenced GDA cannot be converted to the current version. |
Explanation |
When a GDA cataloged with Version 2.2, 2.3 or 3.1 is referenced in a DEFINE DATA GLOBAL statement, the GDA contents will automatically be converted to the layout required by the current Natural version. However, for internal reasons, this does not work for this GDA object. |

END-PROCESS missing for PROCESS PAGE MODAL in line .... |
Explanation |
This error occurs under one of the following conditions:
1) A PROCESS PAGE MODAL statement was started in a conditional
statement block (e.g. IF, DECIDE) or in a loop-initiating
statement (e.g. REPEAT, FIND), but it has not been closed yet at
the end of this statement (e.g. END-IF or END-REPEAT). Examples:
IF FIELD = 'A' THEN * REPEAT
PROCESS PAGE MODAL * PROCESS PAGE MODAL
MOVE #A TO #B * MOVE #A TO #B
END-IF * END-REPEAT
2) A PROCESS PAGE MODAL statement was started, but not yet
closed at program end.
