X Overflow

Hi,

Sometimes while working with PDS or PS datasets I get a message like "X OVERFLOW" at the bottom of the mainframe Screen. Has anyone encountered this and is it something wrong with the commands which use while working ?

Try not to use the Insert key on your keyboard and try not to type beyond the end of any input field and, finally, try not to type into a protected part of the screen.
The problem I have is that people can explain things quickly but I can only comprehend slowly.
Regards
Nic
