Explanation: Critical. The message was issued for one of the following reasons:
The length or position of a control field was specified incorrectly. |

| You need to analyze the record's data structure to find as much as 4k worth of fields to do a primary sort on, those fields most likely to change. Once so sorted, you can programmaticly compare the key equal records to each other checking the rest of the record. Not particularly easy, but not totally impossible. |
