  Text:         ZERO value for BY operand.  Statement processed as
                written
 
  Explanation:  You have used the BY operand to the verb PERFORM, but
                the value you have specified for the increment is
                zero. Your COBOL system will produce code to execute
                this statement, but the value is never incremented.
