  Text:         No current record defined for sequential read
 
  Severity:     Recoverable
 
  Explanation:  The file position indicator in your file is undefined
                owing to a failed read/START or INVALID KEY condition.
                You have tried to read another record in the file but
                as the current record is undefined the system cannot
                find the start of the record for which you have asked.
 
  Resolution:   You should attempt a START operation, and continue to
                do so until the file position indicator is updated
                successfully.
