Problem using CHECK

 Hi All,

I am writing a data cleanup program.  I need to check a name and address
file to make sure that all the characters are valid alphanumeric characters.
I wrote the few lines of code below.  I wanted the 'BADCHR' to be an array
so that I could substring A BLANK into each position that has an invalid
character.  But ever time I try to compile the program it complains that
*RNF5343 30      7 Array has too many omitted indexes; specification is
ignored.
BADCHR is an array defined length of 1,0 DIM(30)



 C     VALIDCHR(1)   CHECK     GNADD3        BADCHR
 C                   IF        BADCHR > *ZEROS
 C                   EXSR      FIX_NM1RECORD
 C                   ENDIF

What am I doing wrong?

TIA Ron
