  Message:      RT196
 
  Text:         Record number too large in relative or indexed file
 
  Severity:     Fatal
 
  Explanation:  The relative record key has exceeded the system limit,
                that is, the file is too large for the system to
                handle.
 
  Resolution:   Alternatively, the record key which you have specified
                is too large for the system to deal with successfully,
                or the pointer to the record has been corrupted in
                some way so that it is either too large or it is not a
                multiple of the record length.
