SO or SI in continuation column - no continuation assumed

Explanation

When High Level Assembler is invoked with the DBCS option, the double-byte delimiters SO and SI are treated as spaces in the continuation indicator field, and not as continuation indicators.

System action

The SO or SI in the continuation indicator field assembles as a space, and the next line is not treated as a continuation line.

Programmer response

If continuation is required, then rearrange the source line so that a non-space EBCDIC character can be used to indicate continuation. If continuation is not required, check that everything preceding the SO or SI is complete and valid data.
