• Message number: 262

• Message text: &: Feature & has no space for addt'l key characters

What causes this issue?

You are using a decision operation that fills the variable key with a
specification of a certain length. However, the variable key does not
have sufficient space for this specification.

How to fix this error?

You have two options:
You decide that only a part of the specification is important for the
query, and can then shorten the specification by defining the offset
and length.
If you require the full length of the specification, you must move the
query to a subfeature which is called with the operation FLDID.
