  Text:         A non-integer is being moved to an alphanumeric data
                item
 
  Explanation:  A MOVE statement is trying to move a noninteger item
                to an alphanumeric data item.  The decimal point will
                be ignored and all the digits moved as if they
                constituted an integer.
