ON SIZE ERROR Phrase

In Studio Enterprise Edition, the ON SIZE ERROR condition exists when the value resulting from an arithmetic operation exceeds the capacity of the specified picture-string. In RM/COBOL, the ON SIZE ERROR condition exists when the value resulting from an arithmetic operation exceeds the capacity for the associated data item.
