NAT1256: Value of system variable :1: is undefined.

Text
Value of system variable ... is undefined.
Explanation
A Natural statement references a system variable in order to get its
value. The value of the system variable is currently undefined, due to
the following reason:
1. The value of the system variable *UBOUND or *LBOUND is undefined if
   the corresponding X-array is not materialized (i.e. occurrences are
   not allocated).

The system variable which caused the error is shown in the error
message.
Action
Allocate occurrences of the corresponding X-array with the
REDUCE/EXPAND/RESIZE statement before referencing *UBOUND or *LBOUND.

NAT1257: Access to a non-materialized X-array field not permitted.

Text
Access to a non-materialized X-array field not permitted.
Explanation
An X-array is an array field with an alterable number of occurrences.
At runtime, an X-array is empty by default. It does not have any
accessible occurrences, unless they were allocated before with an
explicit EXPAND .. ARRAY statement.
Action
Allocate X-array occurrences with EXPAND .. ARRAY statement.
