- one possible source of this type of error is the length of the continuation
- line you inherited from your former program. so, check the length of your
- continuation line and ensure it is not more than 15(to be safe). if you have
- not used more than 15 continuation lines, then check the number of characters
- you have used per line in the common block.make sure you've not got a "comma"
- extending beyond the limit. if after all these the error continues croping up,
- let us know.
