ASMA081E Created SET symbol exceeds 63 characters - xxxxxxxx

Explanation

A SET symbol created by variable symbol substitution is longer than 63 characters (including the ampersand as the first character).

System action

If the symbol is in the operand field of a SET, AIF, or AGO statement, its value is set to zero or null, and the type attribute is set to undefined (U). If the symbol is in the operand field of a GBL, or LCL statement or the name field of a SET statement, processing of the macro stops.
