  Text:         Invalid conditional expression
 
  Explanation:  A conditional expression which you have specified in
                the Procedure Division of your program does not
                conform to the rules of COBOL syntax.  These
                expressions, an example of which is the statement
                immediately following an IF, allow one of two
                following statements to be executed at run-time
                depending on the truth value.
 
  Resolution:   See your Language Reference for details on the
                coding of the particular statement which you have used.
                Revise your code accordingly.
