RE: error# MCH1210

MCH1210  is  "Receiver value too small to hold result."

What does he mean when he says take 'D' is to get the error in dumped spool
file for his further reference. 
For the 'G' option to make the job to continue. I do not understand. How can
you give a 'G' after 'D'. (After Dump option the job ends. Then we can't
give a 'G' for Go option in response)

Ok Coming to actual solution for the error: Go into job log of the error and
take F1 on the informational message before actual error. It says which
program and which field need to be increased. Find out what field was
estimated wrongly to hold large number value and change the program field
length that which could not hold the value. Then run.
