ICP116I **WARNING** CONTINUATION CARD TREATED AS A COMMENT BY IOCP
Explanation
IOCP issues this message following a continuation card that is treated as a comment by IOCP (that is, it is ignored). Any continuation cards for the same statement that follow this message are also treated as comments by IOCP.
- Card n is continued but the operand field on card n ends with a blank instead of a comma. Card n+1 receives this message and any keywords on card n+1 are ignored.
- Card n is continued but the operand field on card n+1 begins in column 17 or greater instead of column 16. Card n+1 receives this message and any keywords on card n+1 are ignored.
System action
IOCP ignores the continuation cards being treated as comments and continues processing.
Programmer response
Verify that there are no keywords on the continuation cards being treated as comments. If there are, fix the conditions that caused IOCP to treat them as comments. If there are no keywords and a valid comment exists on the continuation card, ignore the message or move the comment to a comment card. Comment cards begin with an asterisk (*) in column 1 or a period and asterisk (.*) in columns 1 and 2. See Coding IOCP statements for more information about how to code IOCP statements and comments.
