Bill,

The second level help text is available in SEU if you execute F(ind) *ERR when 
you display the compiler listing (F15 + Option 2), and then press F1 or Help 
when the error message is "found". You could also run DSPMSGD CPF3238 from the 
command line. I've seen this message if I defined different numbers of key 
fields, or if I did specify the same number of key fields, but the field 
lengths or data types were different. Sometimes you can get around this by 
specifying *N as a placeholder for key fields that don't apply across all 
records.
