Length of record %1 does not match RECORD CONTAINS clause for file. %2 assumed.

20

Cause . . . . . : For tape files, the length of a record in a WRITE statement is determined by the length of the record specified in the WRITE statement. The length of record %1 is different from the length specified in the RECORD CONTAINS clause for the file. The RECORD CONTAINS clause will be ignored for any WRITE of %1.

Recovery . . . : Either remove the RECORD CONTAINS clause, or ensure that all of the record description entries for the file are of the size specified in the RECORD CONTAINS clause.
