  Text:         FD missing for file <file-name>
 
  Explanation:  You have not made an FD entry for all the files named
                in the FILE-CONTROL paragraph.
 
  Resolution:   Ensure that there is an FD entry for each file named in
                a SELECT clause in the File-Control paragraph.
