  Text:         File must have ACCESS SEQUENTIAL
 
  Explanation:  The file named in this statement must have sequential
                access mode.  A file's access mode is derived from its
                SELECT statement;  it is either implied by the file's
                organization or specified by its ACCESS MODE clause.
 
  Resolution:   Change the access mode of the file to sequential.
