  Message:      0240
 
  Text:         Only allowed at 01 level
 
  Explanation:  You have used either the NEXT or TYPE clauses in a
                report description entry, or the GLOBAL or EXTERNAL
                clauses in a report file description entry, which is
                not an 01 level item.
 
  Resolution:   Edit your source code to ensure that everywhere you
                have used NEXT, TYPE, GLOBAL or EXTERNAL the clause applies
                to an 01 level item.
