MESSAGE

 The %MESSAGE directive accepts one or  more  string  expressions
 and  at  compile-time  will  generate  a  compiler  message that
 includes the  concatenation  of  the  string  expressions.   The
 message is generated directly from the compiler and does not use
 the OpenVMS error message service $PUTMSG.

   %MESSAGE( string-expression,... )
