/sys$common/syshlp/helplib.hlb FORTRAN, Error Messages, Compilation Errors, MINDIGITS  *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

  SEVERITY:  I

  MESSAGE TEXT:  CDD description specifies precision less than
  allowed for data type.  Minimum precision is supplied.

  EXPLANATION:  Some Common Data Dictionary data types specified a
  number of digits that is incompatible with Compaq Fortran data types.
  When this error occurs, the Compaq Fortran compiler expands the data
  type to conform to a Compaq Fortran data type.
