IGYPP5216-U "?" is not a valid alternate reserved word table name.

Explanation

The alternate reserved word table name "?" is not accepted. Enterprise COBOL V3.1.0 and later come with only two IBM® supplied alternate reserved word tables:
  • IGYCRWT - the IBM-supplied default reserved word table.
  • IGZCCICS - the IBM-supplied CICS® reserved word table
You can create additional reserved word tables, but each of them must have a unique 1- to 4-character identifier. For a list of character strings that cannot be used, see WORD in the Enterprise COBOL Customization Guide.

System action
