IDCMDDER42 - LOW-RANGE and HIGH-RANGE in Ideal condition-names will be ignored

Reason:

Datadictionary supports COBOL 88 condition-names with the THRU clause in its VALUE specification through the attributes LOW-RANGE and HIGH-RANGE. CA Ideal supports only single-valued condition-names, specified through the VALUE attribute. This message warns you that one or more condition-names in the DATAVIEW were specified with the LOW-RANGE or HIGH-RANGE attributes. This message is a warning so that dataviews shared by CA DL and CA Ideal do not restrict the use of COBOL constructs in the CA DL environment. However, use of multiple-value condition-names in CA Ideal can cause unpredictable results.

Action:

Do not use condition-names in CA Ideal programs that use LOW-RANGE or HIGH-RANGE attributes from Datadictionary.
