If the data in the extended continuation is to be regarded as valid input then another non-space character must be used in the continuation indication column to identify the data as valid and to continue to the next record. If the data is not to be part of the constant then remove the characters of the extended continuation and add the correct data to the continue record to the point where the extended continuation is needed. This message might be encountered when converting code that assembled with the NODBCS option to code that is to be assembled with the DBCS option.
