#### NAT1200: I/O error during external sort.

    Text
    I/O error during external sort.
    Explanation
    The system sort program to be used for the external sort function
    could not be found in any of the libraries defined for the Natural
    program as load libraries.
    Action
    Check if SORTNAM in the Configuration utility or dynamic parameters
    contain a valid sort-program name and that the load library available
    to Natural contains that module.

#### NAT1201: External sort control fields total exceeds 256 bytes.

    Text
    External sort control fields total exceeds 256 bytes.
    Explanation
    The external sort used via the SORT statement supports
    a maximum of 256 bytes for the sort fields.
    Action
    Reduce the number or length of sort fields specified in the SORT
    statement.

#### NAT1202: Error in external sort; core/disk space insufficient.

    Text
    Error in external sort; core/disk space insufficient.
    Explanation
    For the external sort function, either a system sort program is
    invoked (in batch mode) or an incore sort is invoked (in online
    mode).
    In batch mode, the reason for the error message is either insufficient
    disk space or a missing DD card.
    In online mode, the reason for the message is insufficient memory in
    the file buffer which is used for intermediate storage in the sort
    process.
    Action
    Contact your Natural administrator.

#### NAT1205: No more sort work space.

    Text
    No more sort work space.
    Explanation
    There is no more space in the core; or the work files cannot
    be accessed, are full, or cannot be supported; or the record
    size is greater than the maximum buffer size.
    Action
    Decrease the number of records to be sorted, or the number of
    fields per sort record; or enlarge the incore sort work area
    or sort work files (if present).

#### NAT1212: Internal error - no more space in quicksort work area.

    Text
    Internal error - no more space in quicksort work area.
    Action
    Contact your Natural administrator.

#### NAT1214: SORT/NTSORT option STORAGE=SD only allowed under Com-plete.

    Text
    SORT/NTSORT option STORAGE=SD only allowed under Com-plete.
    Explanation
    The SORT/NTSORT option STORAGE=SD can only be used for the Natural
    internal sort if the Natural session is running under Com-plete.
    Action
    Use STORAGE=MAIN or STORAGE=BP.

#### NAT1220: Multiple active SORTs are not allowed.

    Text
    Multiple active SORTs are not allowed.
    Explanation
    No more than one SORT loop may be active at a time. This error occurs
    if within an active processing loop initiated with a SORT statement
    another program, subprogram or subroutine is invoked, and within this
    invoked object another SORT statement is executed.
    Action
    Correct error in application.

#### NAT1222: Memory required for statement execution not available.

    Text
    Memory required for statement execution not available.
    Explanation
    The memory required to execute the statement is not available.
    Possible reasons are:
    - The amount of memory allocated to a dynamic variable or an X-array had
      to be increased, but this caused the total memory available to the
      Natural session to be exceeded.
    - The amount of work memory required to execute the statement caused
      the total memory available to the Natural session to be exceeded.
    - Natural environment constraints (e.g. the settings of profile
      parameters) limit the total amount of memory available to the Natural
      session.
    - Operating or TP system restrictions (e.g. the total memory available)
      limit the amount of memory that is available to the Natural session.
    Action
    Use the system command LASTMSG * to find out what exactly caused the
    memory request to fail.
    Check program and correct error, or contact your Natural administrator.

#### NAT1223: A numeric field contains a non-numeric digit.

    Text
    A numeric field contains a non-numeric digit.
    Explanation
    At least one of the digits in a numeric field is not a numeric digit
    and cannot be processed in a numeric context.
    Action
    Check if the numeric field in question is redefined as alphanumeric or
    binary. If so, make sure it contains only numeric digits.
    Otherwise, input data (from the database) could be erroneous.
