Using message command with update variable clause is not updating the variable

CAUSE:
AS <datatype> in the UPDATE clause only has to be used when the variables has not previously defined.
From the Message statement help:

or the LIKE option if field has not been previously defined.

Don't use AS <datatype> with the UPDATE clause in the MESSAGE statement if the variable has been previously defined.
