  Message:      RT154
 
  Text:         PERFORM nested too deeply
 
  Severity:     Fatal
 
  Explanation:  This error usually results if you have used GO TO to
                jump out of the range of a PERFORM rather than to jump
                to an EXIT statement at the end of its range.
 
  Resolution:   When your program has terminated you will need to
                recode your program to ensure that the GO TO in
                question jumps to an EXIT statement at the end of the
                PERFORM's range.
