Error Lookup

To find the meaning of an error from any of the applications, use the program Error Lookup in the Start menu.

When started, the program prompts for an error prefix and an error code. Some programs (for example, Hull) show errors in a slightly different way than the rest of the system. It is therefore important that the correct error prefix is selected before the error code is entered.

The error prefixes that are important and that differs from ordinary errors are:

"FFIX="

"QERROR="

"SSP ERROR="

"SYSTEM ERROR="

"WA201="

"WAFIX="

"WFFIX="

If the error code is prefixed with any of the above, the prefix must be selected in the box. Otherwise, it is likely that the error message is incorrect.

When the error prefix is selected, supply an error code and press return.

The system will present the text if available and prompt for a new error code.

For Error Lookup to work it is necessary to have the name SBB_ERRMESS defined to the file sb_error_codes.txt that resides on SB_SYSTEM.
