  Text:         Invalid FUNCTION name
 
  Explanation:  The name specified after the word FUNCTION is not a
                recognized function name. It is possible you are using the
                word "function" as a data name. This word is a reserved
                word.
 
  Resolution:   If you require an intrinsic function, ensure the name
                you have used is correct. If you wish to use function as
                a data name, resubmit your program with the directive
                REMOVE"FUNCTION" to remove the word FUNCTION from the
                reserved word list.
