HOST VARIABLE INDICATOR 'name' IS INVALID

Reason:

The host variable indicator identified in the message text was specified in an SQL statement and either does not occur in the WORKING-STORAGE SECTION or the LINKAGE SECTION, or has an incorrect PICTURE clause.

Action:

Ensure that the host variable indicator is specified in the WORKING-STORAGE SECTION or the LINKAGE SECTION of the COBOL program and ensure that the PICTURE clause is specified as S9(4) COMP.
