Hello, Marie!

The 603 error means that USA. United States, or United States of America was used in the location field in conjunction with a pre-USA date (for Massachusetts, that would be a date before July 4, 1776).

To correct the error, you simply need to remove the USA reference from the location field and save the data.

HI Lindy: Thanks
