  Message:      1007
 
  Text:         VALUE literal too large.  Literal truncated
 
  Explanation:  The literal you have specified in the VALUE clause is
                too long to fit into the data item.  Your COBOL system
                inserts characters from the literal into the
                data item, until the data item is full.
