  Text:         ACCESS missing on indexed/relative file
 
  Explanation:  The format of this clause depends on the organization
                of the data-file.  If you have specified the ORGANIZATION
                clause for a file as either INDEXED or RELATIVE you
                must specify an ACCESS MODE clause for it, indicating
                which mode you will use to access that file.  If no
                mode is specified, sequential access mode is assumed.
 
  Resolution:   Refer to your Language Reference for further
                details on the use of this clause.
