  Text:         Signed numeric compared with group.  Processed as
                alphanumeric compare
 
  Explanation:  You have written your code so that a signed numeric
                field is compared with a group item. Your COBOL
                system has treated the signed numeric field as an
                alphanumeric field for the comparison.  There are no
                problems with comparing a signed numeric field with an
                elementary item.
