If you can't figure out what the message is saying open a PMR
with the COBOL people tell them for the up teenth time that
these messages are NOT self describing.

IGYPS0157-E A shift-out was found in column 50 without a
matching shift-in in a nonnumeric or national literal. The
literal was processed as written.
A shift-out without a shift-in? Pretty obvious.
Not if he was not using DBCS. No reason to expect
this message. Apparently it was caused by the
change if default compiler option settings, which
does seem a little obscure, don't you think?
Not at all.
Just because you find a shift-in in your source doesn't mean the
error message is at fault. If you look at your listing and actually
see a shift in there, then you might want to complain about the
preprocessor that placed it there. But that would be the
preprocessors fault, not the message -- it means exactly what it says.
If you will pardon the pun, this sound like a perfect example of
'shooting the messenger' instead of addressing the root cause.
