Matt, here's your problem -
     MOVE 0 TO MA-NUM-REC

In Cobol, you are not allowed to have zero
table occurrences.
Therefore the min and max record lengths are 25 and 109.
Setting the index to zero causes the passed record
length to be 4 which causes the error.

Bill, I can't seem to find a rule for this in
the standard. Is it implied somewhere ?
